Dressed like Napoleon

Emperor Jean-Bédel Bokassa, dressed like Napoleon, takes a salute at a parade to celebrate his coronation. Also known as the "Cannibal King" it was rumored he served human flesh at the banquet when he crowned himself Emperor Bokassa I in a costly and colorful ceremony inspired by his idol, Napoleon Bonaparte, in the country’s capital of Bangui on December 4, 1977. Kenya’s renowned photojournalist, Mohamed Amin also known as “Six Camera Mo”, got exclusive images of Bokassa at his Coronation and also enjoyed the banquet! Mo Amin had to dress in tuxedo and top hat as anyone not dressed properly would have their ears cut off!! Probably to serve as appetizers!
