Yes. And his best friend (Compaore) whom he took like a brother. They eat from the same plate and do almost everything together. was the one used to carryout the assassination.
Whole Africa failed Sankara by not recognizing and supporting his ideology so don't expect anything from white pple , they were against his ideas,so Mandela on other side was never sellout it was all about compromise and avoiding civil war, so white pple endorsed Mandela idea's wich is the reason he's been celebrated remembered around the World, read South African history especially with Mandela then yr conscious will be clear about as how South Africa become free.
Most of coups in africa happened in francophone countries. This isn't by chance. I challenge France24 to come up with evidence that shows France had no role in assassination of Sankara.
Pretty much French was involve in Libya, saw the WikiLeaks email about French sent to Hilary Clinton. That 5 reasons why French wanted to overthrow Gadaffi. The same email also mention that they bribed a Libyan general.
You cut him off mid sentence there. He was referring to his fellow nationals and many Africans in general being wrong by expecting the west to take a paternalistic approach towards them. And that they should instead work towards being able to take care of themselves and their own. He strove to drive on his fellows that they could be self reliant and they should seek to detach themselves not just from the exploitative but the paternalistic approach from people outside of the region. And most Burkinese believe France was a financial and material backer of his assassination. And the laws he had passed and further ones he intended to pass that hurt non regional interests around the time of his assassination getting reversed by his predecessor support that belief.
Thomas Sankara was the burkinabe who drove France out of Upper Volta then he changed the name upper Volta to Burkina Faso. French government organised and conspired with some Ivorians and his best friend and murdered him
@@christianevanherck6023 I don't need to proof it to idiots, France as a nation represented by Macron has admitted to the killings of million Algerians
I am not a Burkinabe but I love Sankara to the dept of my heart because he was a true African spirit, and could lead Burkina Faso to a higher level if he was still alive.
He is a legend He is a bigman Like Machel and Lumumba You're all Great men of Africa 💪💪You died but your spirits do live and sooner they're gonna arise and take it from where you left..
The thought of Thomas sankara has been with me these few weeks then l saw this video. They may kill the body but your spirit live on. May the spirit of mother Africa never forget you mate. Rest in power.
Hypocrisy at the highest level..France and their western partners used Blaize Campaore to silence a true African hero because he was a threat to their colonial power.Shame!!!!!!
he was among the very few men in this unlucky continent honest person to his country later John Mgufuli from Tanzania was his footsteps which one of them had dream to make his country self sufficient fully independence from brain washs but unfortunately they didn't reach the goal
Thomas Sankara was the best thing to ever happen in Burkina Faso, and, for the rest of West/Central Africa, it was Nkrumah and Lumumba. May Ibrahim Traoré hopefully carry on what Sankara started!
His thought and philosophy should be teach in a university in his country to keep alive his dream.if African countries adopt his policy I think they would be developed.this guy was a genius of leadership great orator and charismatic leader rip.
Honestly, this will stop if our people become more wiser, they realy need to stop letting outsider using them against each other to destroy the future of their own people, very sad. 😠😡
Monsieur Sankara est inspirant et nous pousse tous à vouloir faire une différence, à tendre vers l'excellence. J'aurais voulu avoir la chance de le rencontrer. Merci à la population du Burkina.
@@Harry-zc8rg Like poetry: "During the lifetime of great revolutionaries, the oppressing classes constantly hounded them, received their teachings with... the most furious hatred and unscrupulous campaigns of lies and slander. After their death, attempts are made to convert them into harmless icons... while at the same time emasculating the essence of the revolutionary teaching, blunting its revolutionary edge and vulgarizing it."
Why do they love to compare people, Sankara was Sankara not the something of Africa. I always found those so odd. Che Guevara is his own man and Thomas Sankara is his own man.
Just like Sankara, Gaddafi too was brutally murdered for opposing colonial powers. Both had a vision to unite Africa and west was afraid of this becoming a reality. Their deaths became a painful reminder of the current destruction that's happening to Africa.
'He had the cutting edge of youth, he's replete with good leadership qualities.' France is complicit in Sankara's murder, it did so, because Sankara envisioned a full state autarky and an independent Burkinabe. Sadly, France once again showed its desire to keep, for as long as possible, all whilom French colonies, in destitution, poverty and instability and aid funded governments...
those who killed sankara their names and nations shall be divided and shall never have peace for ever it will eat into their generations and may the saints say amen
Imagin if he was alive and get a chance to do his job, what would Burkina faso will look today. This is wgst Ethiopian leader Dr. Abiye is preaching today.

Please do not insult people’s intelligence and put that Incompetent Ethiopian Pm next to the great leaders of africa Abiy Ahmed has only been in charge for 3 years but has ruined the whole of Ethiopia and invited foreign countries along with his government to commit a genocide on Tigray and ethnic cleanse Tigrayans.

Whenever foreign media describes Africa all I hear is hunger and poverty
They love to see Black People in poverty especially in America
So many few true leaders in Africa, but so many hateful leaders.
Wonder until now Sankara’s position hasn’t been filled so far.
It's always an enemy from within. They always use one of our own to commit crimes against ourselves.
Yep!
Always an enemy from within. That’s why you give everyone a side eye regardless of how “friendly”’he/ she is to you.
