Burkina Faso: The Solenzo case: a manoeuvre by enemies of peace and security?
Recent developments in Burkina Faso highlight a coordinated effort by imperialist forces and their allies—comprising exiled figures, local collaborators, and certain political actors—aimed at fostering instability within the country.
Evidence of these activities, including audio recordings and confessions from apprehended associates, has shed light on their collaboration with armed groups operating in rural areas.
These actors are allegedly orchestrating insecurity in targeted regions to undermine the popular regime led by Captain Ibrahim Traoré. Their strategy appears to include inciting unrest and turning public sentiment against the government and the defense and security forces.
Escalating incidents in the latter months of the year signal an intensification of these destabilization campaigns.
The attack on Monday, November 25, in Solenzo, located in the Banwa province of Burkina Faso’s Boucle du Mouhoun region, exemplifies these tactics.
Opinions suggest that this incident aligns with the agenda of sowing discord and manipulating the population through orchestrated violence.
By targeting civilians or security personnel, these forces aim to spark dissatisfaction and provoke rebellion.
Media outlets often accused of bias, such as RFI and France 24, have reportedly amplified the narrative, seizing on the Solenzo events even before official statements were made.
Their coverage has been described as inflammatory, seemingly designed to erode public trust in the authorities and security efforts.
The Burkinabe population is urged to remain vigilant and discerning, rejecting biased information and standing firm against manipulation.
Supporting the sacrifices of the defense forces remains vital to the collective mission of restoring peace and reclaiming national sovereignty.
The unity and resolve of the people are essential in confronting these challenges and ensuring the country’s stability.
