Oheneba Ntim-Barimah has spoken highly of Captain Ibrahim Traore’s bold leadership in Burkina Faso, highlighting the significant changes Traore is driving within the country.
During a recent radio interview, Ntim-Barimah emphasized that Traore’s transformative vision has not only resonated within Burkina Faso but has also challenged global powers such as the United States and France.
Ntim-Barimah shared his concerns about the external pressures faced by Burkina Faso, particularly from Western powers.
He stated, “If France and the West succeed in undermining Traore’s initiatives, it could take Burkina Faso years to recover.”
He further compared Traore to other prominent revolutionary figures like Muammar Gaddafi and Kwame Nkrumah, suggesting that Traore’s leadership is reminiscent of these historical figures who challenged Western influence.
In his analysis, Ntim-Barimah revealed that France has strategically positioned itself in Ivory Coast, with plans to infiltrate Burkina Faso.
“France has established a base in Ivory Coast with the intention of disrupting Traore’s progress and potentially overthrowing him,” he warned.
Ntim-Barimah pointed out the vulnerability of neighboring countries, indicating that they could be exploited as gateways to undermine Burkina Faso’s sovereignty.
Despite these challenges, Ntim-Barimah lauded the Ghanaian president John Dramani Mahama for standing firm in his refusal to allow his country to be used as a means for Western powers to access Burkina Faso.
He expressed appreciation for Ghana’s stance, stating, “I commend our president for refusing to allow our country to be used as a conduit for entering Burkina Faso.”
