Prince Jean-Bédel Georges

Two-year-old Jean-Bédel Georges, the crown prince of the Central African Empire – wearing a crisp white uniform, rides in his own open green and gold coach pulled by six horses to the coronation ceremony. He looked pretty bored with the whole drama. Also known as the "Cannibal King" it was rumored, Jean-Bédel Bokassa 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!
