SOURCE However, the Burkina Faso Government through its Spokesperson, Alkassoum Maiga denied reports of a coup but confirmed shootings in several Military Barracks in the Country. Information conveyed in social networks tends to make believe in a takeover by the army on this day January 23, 2022. SOURCE In same fashion, Defence Minister General Aimé Barthélémy Simporé appearing in a broadcast in the State TV, RTB also denied reports of a coup d'etat. He assured the President was neither detained nor under any threats. "We don't know any more about the motivations for these shots. It is 'limited' and 'under control' and we are investigating the incident," he said. Confirmed: Internet has been disrupted in #BurkinaFaso from Sunday morning ~10 am.

Governments in West and Central Africa are on high alert for coups after successful putsches over the past 18 months in Mali and Guinea. The military also took over in Chad last year after President Idriss Deby died on the battlefield. Seems coup wants to become a norm in most African countries this days 19 Likes 1 Share |

All these smaller African countries de always funny me. Those countries does not have what it takes to be called a country. They should be converted to farm stead and the citizens there should be working in the farms. Real countries in Africa are not up to 6, with Nigeria, South Africa, Egypt, Tunisia Morocco inclusive. Even Kenya and Ghana should be converted to a district. Black men are not capable of ruling themselves. 12 Likes 1 Share |

Injustice in a country breeds military coup in a country. The Gideon Orkas coup in Nigeria should have repositioned Nigeria away from groups that adopted unconstitutional Islamic sharia criminal laws, and their Boko Haram now fighting to have Nigeria as an Islamic Republic to be governed with Sharia criminal laws. 8 Likes |
