    • Mail & Guardian: Picarra: Angola's Zapiro... Cartoonist Sérgio Piçarra, who has just ended his association with weekly Luanda newspaper Novo Jornal takes risks in a country with limited freedom of expression. Likened to SA's Zapiro, he's has been entertaining Angolans with his satirical observations on life and politics for more than two decades. He is most famous for his comic strips on a work-shy, beer-loving character called Mankiko, reports Mail & Guardian.
