Congrats to the people to defend and stand against these criminal money blinded puppets
What now,…think before you write your rotten thoughts here
These are nothing changes. I understand nations have to seek for aid where it's available, but this is just lazy nothing actions with little or probably bad consequences more likely.
Sad to see, and sadder to see people that think this is beneficial somehow
In trial and error they will a system that works for them, no democracy socialism any for of ism even if it takes multiple coups
Coups are taking place in this country as often as we change our underwears. 🤣
Result of marxism and these coups just means one marxist government after the other…mindless sheep.
More dictators in the making 😏
In 2023 people still need change
ibrahim traore have huge public support.
This used to happen a lot in Rome, the bodyguard unit's would keep killing the emperor because every time a new emperer would come in he would give them a payout.. so they just kept doing it.

Good speech but he is no Sankara. What set Sankara apart was only not his anti-west stance the depth of his politcal analysis and his transformative domestic policies.
10 months later is the security situation any better?
When corruption and unjust government rule people have to go through the process of dismantling the government and creating new institutions that will help people
Let’s be honest generation passed before Europeans advanced enough to even dare to come Africa before that it was not idea before you industrialising you couldn’t do what you do you tried and failed many time before
West in Africa want resources that they are sooo wage for the war machine is ready I’m sure though they speak of peace but each country in Africa can choose who there partners will be going forward
West has given nothing but debt to Africa yet they speak of good relations
Thomas Sankara was the only man who could have saved burkina faso
The west has failed Africa, now its time for Africa to hold hands with Russia 🇷🇺 so we can finally be free
Africans Nations LOVE War and Coups…
It's a sad but common thing.
This is all they know all they have seen have no idea what is a democracy this is crazy
somehow colonisation is the right answer?
Ok stay tuned for the next one.
