Hundreds march in Haiti demanding president’s resignation
/Hundreds of people poured into the streets of Haiti's capital to protest the government of President Michel Martelly. Protesters noted the high cost of living, rising food prices and the government's inability to fund schools. Some demanded the president’s resignation. Martelly, a pop music star before he turned to politics, is trying to rebuild the impoverished nation following a powerful 2010 earthquake that displaced more than a million people. Haitians complain that Martelly has fallen short of improving their livelihoods following the disaster. In September, the government created a commission to stabilize food prices.
