Скачать или смотреть West in Panic as Traore Just exposed the African Leader who betrayed Sankara.

After surviving multiple assassination attempts, Captain Ibrahim Traoré is breaking his silence — exposing those behind the death of Thomas Sankara and revealing the tactics they used to bury a revolution. But before we dive in, let us ask you this: Would your country thrive under a leader like Captain Traoré? Drop your thoughts in the comments below. Because this story isn’t just about the past — it’s about the kind of leadership Africa needs today.
Change was not everything that Sankara desired. He desired a revolution. He advanced audacious plans in just four years with the goal of bringing his people out of poverty and making his tiny West African nation famous.

But he didn't have much time. On October 15, 1987, a catastrophe occurred. He and twelve of his closest allies were brutally slain after armed men raided his office.

It was chilling what came next. Similar to the tragic demise of another African hero, Patrice Lumumba, some thirty years prior, his body was removed, dissected, and interred in an unmarked grave. Sankara's legacy, however, was not forgotten.

His tale is one of bravery, foresight, and the unwavering pursuit of justice. When Burkina Faso was still known as Upper Volta, it all started on December 21, 1949, in a little village named Yako. He was the third of ten children raised in a household that placed a high importance on education and discipline.

Joseph Sankara, his father, had served in the military and made sure her kids had a strong sense of morals and purpose in life. Thomas was up mostly in Gauwa, a town in the southwest of the nation that is encircled by rich countryside. His family was fortunate to live in a brick home with a view of the town, which was uncommon in those days.

However, he was able to see reality despite his luxury. He immediately realized that life wasn't as fair for everyone after playing with neighborhood kids and sitting in schools with local students. He had questions even as a young boy.

Why did some people prosper while others struggled? Why was his country still so heavily influenced by foreign powers? No one could have foreseen how such inquiries would influence his course. A tiny region in West Africa known as Upper Volta hardly attracted any notice during the colonial era. Other than its inhabitants, the French who ruled it didn't think much of the region.

They sent strong young men to work in other colonies where France had greater interests, treating the nation as a human supply center. There weren't many European officials in charge of Upper Volta, in contrast to other affluent French colonies. However, there were enough at Gauwa, where young Thomas Sankara was raised, for him to observe a noticeable difference.

Africans lived in a different fashion than the French did. While African children like Thomas had to work harder for everything, European children had better houses, better clothes, and more chances. Tensions occasionally boiled over.

African and European children frequently got into fights, particularly at school. However, something occurred one day that made matters worse. Upper Volta was on the verge of independence from France in 1960.

Even at the young age of eleven, Thomas saw the significance of what was taking place. He so made the decision to have his own small ceremony with his buddies. They raised the flag of the soon-to-be independent Upper Volta and lowered the French flag.

An audacious action for a bunch of children. It did not make everyone pleased. It was not taken lightly by the children of Europe.
