Burkina Faso’s local media quoted Zida as making the declaration in Ouagadougou during a broadcast over a private television station on Saturday.

If his arrogating power to himself will pave way for democracy and the desired change that sparked the uprising which ousted his boss, cool I'll say.

The Burkina country needs a real rough hand now to have them in check prior to an election or anything that might spring up to save the nation from further trouble.
