Since President Ibrahim Traore came into power in September 2022, we can all agree that he has been working really hard to turn things around in Burkina Faso. Unlike other elected African Presidents whom we can not pick the specific things that they have accomplished in power, the reverse is the case for President Traore. He has outfitted the Burkinabe Military, bought weapons and equipment for the Burkinabe security forces, reclaimed land from terrorists, kicked out French forces, and established diplomatic relations with non-Western countries especially Russia and so many others. He has been a remarkable leader to the Burkinabe people so much so that when his Transition government ended on June 1st, the Burkinabe people mobilized and demanded that his administration be extended. However, despite all these, there are still some people who have been working with foreign forces to ensure that Traore is removed from power and a puppet leader is installed. In this video, we will be discussing the recent attack on Traore, the aftermath, and how Russia has pledged to protect Traore.
Following reports of gunshots close to the presidency in May, hundreds of Burkinabe protesters gathered at the country’s capital, Ouagadougou to show support and solidarity for President Traore’s administration. The protesters gathered at a roundabout right in the middle of the capital and vowed to uphold President Ibrahim Traore’s government. According to the protesters, earlier in the afternoon of the same day, gunshots fired close to the Presidential palace had been heard. They said they didn't know what was happening but they decided to come out to stop anything bad from happening and also express their support for the presidency. The Burkinabe News Agency reported that a lone individual had tried to attack a guard at the palace but there were no injuries or damages. However, the Security Forces then closed off access to the area around the palace. It's obvious that that person was trying to get access to Traore to eliminate him but thankfully he was stopped. This attack on Traore made it the 9th attack since he took power in 2022.
