BREAKING: Traore to rule up to 2029 after signing new charter to extend transition by 5 years

In a major turn of events as his transition period nears its end on June 30th 2024, the transitional President of Burkina Faso, Captain Ibrahim Traore has today on the Saturday of May 25th 2024 signed an amended or rather new transition Charter, that will extend his presidency by five more years, and also give him a new title.
The new charter, which was adopted by the national sitting on the extension of the transition and signed by the youthful Head of State at the closing ceremony of the seating in Ouagadougou, briefly has the following major revised articles that touch on his presidency.
One, the president of the Transition becomes the President of Burkina Faso, and thus Captain Traoré will no longer be referred to as transitional president but rather just President.
Two, as earlier mentioned, the duration of the Transition is extended by five years from July 2nd 2024, meaning that captain Traoré will remain in power until at least up to July 2nd 2029.
And three, the President of Burkina Faso, the Prime Minister and the President of the Transitional Legislative Assembly, will be eligible for the next elections, and this means that if Traore will still be in power in 2029, and willing to run in democratic elections like Chad's Mahamat Idriss Deby Itno, he might remain in power for a way longer period after end of the 7 year transition that he commenced in 2022, that is if he wins the election of 2029.

Granting President Captain Ibrahim Traore’s rule to an extended term to year 2029 or beyond, was the only acceptable solution for Burkina Faso’s development🇧🇫 Praise God for lifting this young Captain to greater heights, and keeping him in the driver’s seat🌍🫡🎉

[@RUTHLESSambition5]

2029??? He is young. I say rule until 2050. By then the country will be a powerhouse.

[@sulsamb686]

All Africa needs is security and productions. Given the state of affairs the world is going through, the West is using 'democracy ' as a whip to usher in puppets that will serve them on the 'dinner table'. A country that doesn't have its own security can not be democratic. A country that can not feed itself can not be democratic . A country that can not control its borders can not be democratic . Western media tells you that Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East. Do you believe that? Palestinian Arab born in Israel doesn't have the same rights as a European who were born in Poland, Ukraine, Australia, Austria, etc, and migrated there. Is that democracy? Africa, don't be fooled. Africa needs productions and security...Traore's vision is the best for any developing country today. See cuba, China, Vietnam, etc.

[@hadassahebenecongo1950]

Let’s pray for protection that he will not be taken out as they did with sankara. The people have chosen. The western is fuming. They e already tried many times but they shall not succeed. After that may he be elected for another 10 years by then country will be stable and very powerful. God bless president Traore and God bless Burkina Faso

[@richardshifflett2310]

He is one tough hombre. My hope is that Washington DC and the 🗑️ trash in Europe leave him an his people be. 🎉🎉🎉.I would like to visit the country,,but I don't think they want a pale face there right now.
