What's behind Burkina Faso's latest military coup attempt? | Inside Story 

First, thank you Al J for doing more than a 2 minute story like the rest of the media.

The land of hero Thomas sankara the best president in Africa.

France doing what it does best in Africa

Military coups NEVER solved Africas' problems in the past ,they rather made them worse. Military coups often lead to counter- coups , civil wars, mismanagement, corruption, human right abuses, and unstable environment and deprived Africa of peace much needed for development. The military in Africa should rather dialogue and cooperate with African governments to fight Jihadists and nation wreckers instead of using their activities as excuses to remove elected governments, and come to power to loot national coffers. Military coups have retarded Africas' development over three decades .The AU , ECOWAS , the international community and Institutions must make military coups and illegal constitutional amendments to hang onto power impossible and unatractive. Africa cannot afford to be going backwards with military coups among community of nations. It is a shame ! Soldiers in Africa alone have distabilized Africa for far too long .! Enough is Enough !

I hate when they have Europeans discuss or analyze African problems.

You are absolutely right Mr Adama Gaye, even if you have removed me from your Facebook followers 'contacts because of some différent points of views . Basically , the international community should stop being hypocritical and tell the civilian heads of states to be respectful to the citizens. Times have changed and they must understand those facts !

It is puzzling ,why these coups are happening in French colonies again and again , there has to be some kind of explanation linked to French parasitism .

Thank you Adama Gaye for your sensible analysis you hit point

The solution to insecurity in Africa is to get France out of Africa

French and Belgium they were the worse colonisers. Wherever they colonisers they have left chores

They should learn from Ethiopia and chad. were the president are ready to die for it’s country. Not greedy wicked presidents. Even if you’re stealing, but show the people that you’re active.

I don't know to much about this country but I will say that when it comes to France giving nations their independence that is a lie, because they're not able to control their resources or economy. And for a nation to be successful they must be in control of their own resources and money. So if France is going to give a nations their independence, they should also give them back their resources too so that they can be totally independent. What is independence if the people are not able to be in control of their own economics, resources and land . This is why a rich country is so poor all if their resources isnt going to the people or their country because it's going to France. This is why a rich continent like Africa is poor, because colonizer countries make sure to forever have control over rich melinated nation's resources and economics. This they don't want the world to know. Plus the colonizers nations always throw a monkey wrench into nations who wants leave or to flex their independence. Then countries like France turn around and maked it seem like the African nation just turned on it self for no reason. All we have to do is to study history and we will see that the play book is always the same. Love 💘 and light family.

Why don't they do this style of take over in the US ???

Mr Adama Gaye is an expert in West African issue he’s right on the money as always

Upper Volta..........Revolt again. Sankara's spirit is alive............👊🏼

Bravo 👏🏽 talk point, great man the black journalist

If you have a problem, and have the finance to stop that problem but refuses to release it, what else should happen? The military was right to do what they did. Others should learn.

I watched and wondered if the country in question was Ukraine or Ireland, for example, would they have had a panel of two Europeans and one African?🤔

Uganda we are waiting for this 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

2:21 This is NOT a step backwards, BUT a step forward for democracy in Burkina Faso. The founder of modern democracy, John Locke, noted that citizens have the right, and the duty to overthrow those who are in power who live off the people instead of serving them. It would appear that the government was not doing their job in Burkina Faso. The DUTY of government is to provide protection against internal and external threats, plus provide services for the people. The government FAILED in their duty by not protecting their population. They allowed people to be attacked by external forces continually, they did not feed the soldiers who were tasked with protecting the people. I therefore commend those who removed their government's impotent like leaders from power!

Imran Khan. My favorite inside story anchor 💕

This is well good 👍✅ its left with Ghana

Another Failed State 😪

Yes

This agencies or unions like Africa union and un are all under the influence of dominant nations, in Africa Nigeria will detect the union and un will be detected by the world powers and that is how the minority and indigenous people will continue to suffer because only a power who wants to listen to them can only help them out, this is unfortunate. I am still looking for remedies.

Soon Nigeria army is coming to take over power 🇳🇬💪💪💪💪💪

I likes révolution Africa freedoown freedoown Africa

I wish them peace.

West Africa and France have a lot to explain to us on what is going on with these coups...

Unless Africans design a mechanism to protect themselves like standing together & preventing foreign interference, the military junta sponsored by alien forces keeps causing mayhem.

The most lair who faked to be human rights lawyer is the next. Fraud, mafia and criminal who don't merit under any circumstances to become a leader of African most civilized and the leader of all African countries. Akufu addo is a shame and a mess l wonder why he is potrayed as a leader of this great organization.? . My dream is that it's certain that he will follow up suit. 😥

If democratization can’t help this country how will the military solve this problem.it’s does not make sense at all why does the African think some military man can solves their problems

Poor leadership and failure to deliver results in a coup in Africa. This has resulted to raise terror attacks and terrorist insurgents

Until the Francophonie in Africa is proscribed and abandoned,the African Continent will forever be in turmoil ! The Francophone countries in Africa, seem to be a liability for a healthy progress in all aspects of advancement on the Whole Continent, and it is time to put an end to these system of things.

love my cantry burkina fasho

Ghana’s Akuffo Addo should stand well,eebuboba,youth r jobless, hungry & angry.our leaders r selfish nd clueless of how to govern well.

It is difficult to take any man seriously when he is wearing sunglasses indoors....

Next is Nigeria

Africa is somehow going behind in her Quest for good and normal Governance. Wow as of 2022 we are slipping behind in our Quest to achieve better things in life and School.

Francophone Africa is fed up.

Oh God why always in West Africa only also in Eastern 😂

You the wicked journalism should ask Borris Johnson and the British terrorist high commission Carolina to conduct a refarandirum in Nigeria to stop terrorism and insecurities in Africa

✊🏽

France and America

# NO MORE

A quentessential failed state, the root of this political economic turmoil stated with the killing of Sankara

Why do you keep saying armed groups when we know that these are Islamic extremists? Call it what it is.

Good for then!

All this problem in Africa is that most of Africa president wanted to stay longer without good development that is bringing all this problem in africa

The French are hard at work again. 😒

African Wizards

Are former british colonies more stable than former french colonies?

and the post-colonial name given to this part of Africa - Burkino Faso - means Land of Upright Men [sic: People]....so sad ... the aspiration of dignity within the name lost 😔

اصلي من اجل السلام🙏 ونصر الشعوب المظلومه✌

Good news

I think Nicolas Haque and Ali Latifi have the same hairdresser! :) great bunch of new gen reporters

Same scenarios all the time in Africa .... crypto_governments ....

This is Africa fam

Thomas sankara land

I think ECOWAS parliament in Nigeria must be disolved and it's organization too must be disbanded because they've deviated from its core mandate as Kwame Nkrumah and other founding fathers in the sub-region instituted.

Puppet government?

Nigeria is next

Coup is not African thing. Excitement follows when it happens and Africans are discussed and blamed. Shhh

Failed State

The Olympic is more important.

Russia's chef Priqojeen...

Good point on the faded ecowas. it has become very irrelevant in establishing stability in the region until there is a situation.

Hahaha reporting from senegal.

Watching

Familiar story in Nigeria ... Iswap/ boko haram wiping the floor there. You want to know where the money goes ...go back to Swiss banks...and Dubai . Dubai is probably due to name streets after corrupt Nigerian politicians.

They should have been part of France. They missed their opportuinity

This is what happened or will happen when democracy is becoming crazy, shameless and shame's to ECOWAS and Africans at large 🇳🇬 leaders interest here is to keep lutting public funds to foreign account for themselves and their family to live in luxury abroad after they are out of power.

The French!

Nothing new here...move along

France is doing thier job in Africa

I will have to stop you when you say that ot just in Africa where coups...happen all the time....lol...look closely in the west and you will be shocked...lol

Selam nialemna yminey

Another French coup!

CIA?

if France leaves Africa or gets kicked out of Africa, there will be peace in the region trust me

Someone is putting on his country's national soccer colors playing for his beloved country while his parents and siblings are looking for a hiding place in ougadougu running away from the same country military or whatever is to say the least crazy.

Africa my Africa...

So many Coup

Hi hello

“The third principles of the religion of Bahá’u’lláh (The promised one of all ages) is in regard to international peace. There must be peace between the fatherlands; peace between the religions. In this period of evolution the world of humanity is in danger. Every war is against the good pleasure of the Lord of mankind. Man is the edifice of God. War destroys the divine edifice. Peace is the stay of life; war the cause of death. If an active, actual peace is brought about, the human world will attain to the utmost serenity and composure. Wolves will be transformed into lambs; devils into angels and terrors into divine splendors in less than the twinkling of an eye.” (Compilations, Baha'i Scriptures, p. 276)

burkina faso has this bs about ethnic groups being unstable to justify military rule remember darfur?

Ich hab koiln annam?

Solution to all problems is "keep trust in the government and respect your leader." Jai Sriram. 🇮🇳
