Passionate about seeing the Alkebulan of my dream emerge. I am unapologetically African. We are building the Emerging Alkebulan. Titles don't matter. Disrupting the status quo. Thought provoker. Pan African to the core.
Thomas Sankara was aware of the constant risk he faced, as mentioned by his widow. How many of our leaders are willing to cause chaos in order to disrupt the dominant control over us? This is why the legacy of Thomas Sankara continues to live on through Ibrahim Traore. We require more Alkebulan leaders who are capable of being about Africans interests to bring about the transformation we crave for on our continent. #Oladelesthoughts

A lot of our country leaders today are very selfish. It's all about them. Selflessness is far from them. And I blame the citizens who vote or refuse to vote, and those who chose to do their dirty jobs. I've said it several times, it's time we all realize that politics should not be a game, rather a very vital rite of our lives as citizens, which determines our future and that of our children and others to come. It's not by who is smart to cheat, or who knows the cheating game, it is about who is ready to selflessly serve and lead the people. Every mistake made in choosing the capable leader will always lead to chaos and destruction.
That is why Ibrahim is very careful , very ready always 👍🏾
I don’t know why we are not reading about people like Thomas Sankara in our African history class? It is Christopher Columbus that makes no sense to our cultural heritage that is push down our memory. This has got to stop ✋🏾.

Selfish leaders always endorsed by the west cause it pays them to siphon and cajole easily. But selfless African leaders don't buy Into there BS that's why they hunt them down to start with propaganda based on lies
Thomas Sankara was our VERY BEST of Africa not only to Burkina Faso!! He was and remain a legend!! Truest Son of Africa even in his death! Ibrahim is his ancestors dream and I think he will do great work!!

All those leaders were not stupid... They perfectly knew which risks they were taking opposing the system.
IT IS time to get Up. To Stand Up and to support Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger in order to stabilize the AES ! For sure Thomas Sankara and the other former leader should be proud of that.

3moIn order to attend our desired standard , I'm convinced that the leaders and the led need to have a common understanding of that level which must be achieved/ attended . The price to be paid (& why it must) needs to be understood by all. If a vision is very clear to the leader and blur to the followers, there will likely be a lag behind by the followers. The visionary leader will have a tough time bringing to fruition the desired standard . I'm convinced that those our visionary leaders of late lacked the support of a trusted followership . Their fellow country men were never fully engaged , though wanting to be liberated from colonialist hardships. (Wanting to eat omelette but not wanting to break the eggs or do the job). That is the sad mentality which most of the Africans, brainwashed by the western "civilized" culture, do function ! Surely, these visionary leaders in the Sahel have already in their minds,;reached their desired standards . They want to materialize it for the good of everyone. They want to lead us out of our mediocre circumstances, as a people ! Danger may be lurking on them always but such will not easily materialize if we, the followers, shall be resolute in giving the necessary good support !
