« Democracy is not for us »: Ibrahim Traoré closes the door to elections in Burkina Faso

Captain Ibrahim Traoré, president of Burkina Faso, stated that there will be no return to elections, asserting that 'democracy is not for us.' He urged Burkinabè to forget about democracy, labeling it a system that has led to misery in Africa. The Charter of the Revolution allows Traoré to remain in power until 2029, with no election date set at this time.
