    What is true independence? Having Russia as the new colonial master is not true independence. Not even close.

    But this is not stealing their resources like the other, that is what true independence means.

    Good way to go.

    Akufo Addo didn't only messed up Ghana, he messed up as Ecowas chairman. After Bawumia was chased from Zimbabwe for messing up their economy, he has also succeeded in messing up Ghana's economy.

    Why should they be part of ECOWAS. The guys are fighting Islamic terrorists and no ECOWAS country has come to their aid. ECOMOG should have been fighting those terrorists not Burkina forces alone. What is the essence of ECOWA ...

    I am Proud of them. They should keep up. Ghana has already lost it soverinty. I never said I want or need ecowas passport.

    We should have ONE STRONG AFRICAN UNION and forget about regional groupings.

  • Gogomi to GhMan 1 year ago

    I agree 100% with you and I guess disengaging from these pointless neocolonial regional groupings is the first step towards a more meaningful African Union.

    Three cheers for our gallant Sahelian boys.

    Those 3 countries mean serious business to change the narratives about their respective people and destiny.

    The leader in Burkina Faso is fighting to stay on power because he has no clue as to how to fight the Islamist who have vowed to take over the country. Try to follow what is happening in that country. Couple of weeks ago, he ...

    You people are blind. The so-called Islamic insurgents are armed, supported and controlled by the US and EU.

    Even Al Qaeda was financed by the CIA to fight against the USSR before it became a frakenstein monster. Ignoram ...

    @AKOMEA GOEBBELS .........Yours is the most insightful and probably the most plausible one in these comments. Any astute student of geo-politics would agree without hesitation.

    Go Join the Russian Federation and you will be their slaves. Get Rubbles to develop Burkina. You are a shame and a waste. Let US See.

  • DEEVINITY 1 year ago

    How exactly have Francophone countries benefitted from the yoke of France and the west???? Your argument is porous and at best completely baseless.

  • Pelicles 1 year ago

    Why did Traore or whatever his name is stage the coup in Burkina Faso? He told his people that the president couldn't fight the Islamic fighters who have sworn to destabilize the country, and has he won the fight? It is worse ...

    Ibrahim traore is a fool. He is fighting ECOWAS while the insurgents are killing his people.Just last week over 200 Burkinabes were killed all he can do is issue non ECOWAS passport. How will it help safeguard his people.

  • Pelicles 1 year ago

    Thank you, Joko. The guy doesn't know what he is doing, and trust me, anytime I go on the internet and see any news about Burkina Faso, I try to delve into it because they are our neighbors.

  • Gogomi to Pelicles 1 year ago

    Your ignorance has no limits. The simple arithmetic to this matter is that, within two years of justifiably taking over power in Burkina, Kwame Nkrumahs once proud Ghana, is now dependent on this desert country for its food s ...

    You also say they're led by military junta, shame on you. They're not freedom fighters, you're a disgrace to Africa. You people are the ones promoting western neo-colonialism and disruption of Africa. Shame on Ghana web

    I totally agree with you.
    They are just replicating the headlines from BBC, VOA and France 24 so that people view the revolution in the Sahel through the Western lens and to sabotage their cause. Its very sad, the AES is tr ...
