"Readjustment Movement Day"

Today is “Readjustment Movement Day” in Guinea-Bissau – a place, and holiday I’d admittedly never heard of before today.

It also appears Google hasn’t heard much about this holiday either as all it will spit out for me is sites listing world holidays, but unfortunately no information. Based on the info in the CIA World Factbook it seems Guinea-Bissau is in a state of constant political “readjustment” – but it doesn’t strike me as the sort of thing you’d have a national holiday for.

The name is such an odd name (I’m guessing some of the meaning got lost in translation) that I’m dying to know what the holiday is all about – Anyone know more?
