Burkina Faso: A rumor of an attempt to destabilize the Traoré regime, the population rises to the niche

Information has been circulating since November 27, 2022 on a possible attempt to destabilize the regime in place. This Monday in Ouagadougou, a hundred people demonstrated, in support of President Ibrahim Traoré targeted according to them, by a plot to overthrow his power.

Clearly, the demonstrations said they had information about an alleged attempt to destabilize President Traoré’s regime. “We don’t want any more coups. And anyone who tries will become president but will not govern,” one of the protesters said.

Gathered at the Place de la Nation, the young people demanded assurances that Captain Traoré was safe. They called on the population of Ouagadougou to join them in supporting the President of the transition Ibrahim Traoré.

“Anyone who would consider destabilizing the power of Captain Traoré, should be careful because if something happens to Ibrahim Traoré, the reaction of the people will not be expected,” added one of the protesters.

Since he came to power, demonstrations of support have followed one another. The President of the Transition, Captain Ibrahim Traoré, therefore called on the population to remain calm, not to give in to manipulation and to trust the new authorities of the transition in the conduct of State affairs. The President also reassures that the higher interest of the nation will be preserved in all circumstances
