En ce 3 mai, \u00e0 l\u2019occasion de la Journ\u00e9e mondiale de la libert\u00e9 de la presse, une voix longtemps r\u00e9duite au silence par la peur et la violence s\u2019\u00e9l\u00e8ve \u00e0 nouveau. Celle de Jean Daniel Joseph, connu du public sous le nom de Waka Waka, ancien journaliste \u00e0 Radio T\u00e9l\u00e9 Zenith et Radio T\u00e9l\u00e9 Megastar.<\/p>\n
Son histoire, longtemps gard\u00e9e dans l\u2019ombre, t\u00e9moigne du prix que certains journalistes paient pour avoir simplement exerc\u00e9 leur m\u00e9tier.<\/p>\n
Dans la nuit du 15 au 16 juillet 2020, Waka Waka a v\u00e9cu l\u2019impensable. Chez lui, \u00e0 Croix-des-Bouquets, cinq hommes arm\u00e9s ont fait irruption. Ils ont ouvert le feu dans le quartier, semant la panique, puis ont bris\u00e9 la porte de sa maison pour p\u00e9n\u00e9trer \u00e0 l\u2019int\u00e9rieur. Ce qui suivra est une s\u00e9quence de brutalit\u00e9 et de terreur.<\/p>\n
\u00ab Ils ont tir\u00e9 sur mon chien, ont saccag\u00e9 la maison, puis ils se sont tourn\u00e9s vers nous \u00bb<\/em>, se rappelle-t-il. Lui, sa femme et leur enfant seront pass\u00e9s \u00e0 tabac, humili\u00e9s, et menac\u00e9s de mort. La raison ? Ses prises de position \u00e0 la radio. \u00ab Ils m\u2019ont dit d\u2019arr\u00eater de parler du gouvernement, d\u2019arr\u00eater de dire la v\u00e9rit\u00e9 au peuple. Sinon, ce serait la fin pour moi et ma famille. \u00bb<\/em><\/p>\n Son mat\u00e9riel professionnel vol\u00e9, la boutique de son \u00e9pouse incendi\u00e9e, son int\u00e9grit\u00e9 physique et morale d\u00e9truite, Jean Daniel Joseph n\u2019a eu d\u2019autre choix que la fuite. Il a abandonn\u00e9 sa carri\u00e8re de journaliste et s\u2019est exil\u00e9 pour \u00e9chapper \u00e0 ce qui ressemblait \u00e0 une ex\u00e9cution programm\u00e9e.<\/p>\n Aujourd\u2019hui, en cette journ\u00e9e cens\u00e9e c\u00e9l\u00e9brer la libert\u00e9 de la presse, son t\u00e9moignage fait froid dans le dos. Il rappelle que dans de nombreux pays, dont Ha\u00efti, informer est un acte de courage, parfois pay\u00e9 au prix fort.<\/p>\n \u00ab Je parle aujourd\u2019hui parce que le silence nourrit l\u2019impunit\u00e9. D\u2019autres vivent la m\u00eame chose que moi et n\u2019osent pas en parler \u00bb<\/em>, affirme-t-il.<\/p>\n Le cas de Waka Waka n\u2019est pas isol\u00e9. Il s\u2019ajoute \u00e0 la longue liste des journalistes menac\u00e9s, exil\u00e9s, agress\u00e9s ou assassin\u00e9s en Ha\u00efti, un pays o\u00f9 les m\u00e9dias ind\u00e9pendants sont constamment sous pression, entre violences politiques, criminalit\u00e9 et absence de justice.<\/p>\n En ce 3 mai, la communaut\u00e9 internationale est appel\u00e9e \u00e0 ne pas d\u00e9tourner le regard. Car prot\u00e9ger les journalistes, c\u2019est prot\u00e9ger la v\u00e9rit\u00e9. Et sans v\u00e9rit\u00e9, il n\u2019y a ni justice, ni d\u00e9mocratie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" En ce 3 mai, \u00e0 l\u2019occasion de la Journ\u00e9e mondiale de la libert\u00e9 de la presse, une voix longtemps r\u00e9duite au silence par la peur et la violence s\u2019\u00e9l\u00e8ve \u00e0 nouveau.
