Well, in the case of Burkina Faso, the answer seems to be yes. This footage shows how Captain Ibrahim Traore was cheered on the streets of Ouagadougou when he grabbed power last year. And it’s followed by images of similar scenes when he returned from the recent Russia-Africa summit. A quick look at his words and actions will help you understand this popularity. In Saint Petersburg he questioned how Africa remains the poorest continent despite its resources. He’s called for its unification and for Africans to fight poverty and imperialism. Traore has broken neocolonial ties with France and championed a federation with Mali and Guinea. He’s also standing firm with Niger’s army, following last week’s coup and warned against an ECOWAS intervention. These actions are resonating with Burkinabes, who draw comparisons with their first president and pan-Africanist Thomas Sankara. What’s more, Traore promises to improve security in a region where an insurgency has displaced nearly two million people. Putting it simply, he’s giving his population hope. Forty per cent live below the poverty line and feel he’s the man to restore the country’s dignity and empower the masses. How much he can will become clear over the coming months and years. Although in terms of economic outlook, the World Bank predicts growth of five per cent by 2025. Perhaps this helps explain the jubilant scenes on show. #BurkinaFaso #RussiaAfricaSummit #IbrahimTraore #Coup #Petersburg #Africa #Poverty #Imperialism #France #Mali #Guinea #ECOWAS #ThomasSankara #shorts
