In 1990s the Ivoirian police failed to control the situation, so a group of poor, politically marginalized, and mostly Muslim men took on the role of the people's protectors as part of a movement they called Benkadi. This title reveals how dozos worked beyond the divisions to derive their new roles as enforcers of security.
