No country develops under democracy — Bukina Faso President Traoré

Published on April 07, 2025 at 04:50 PM

The military president of Burkina Faso, Captain Ibrahim TraorÃ©, said that it is impossible to name any that have developed under democracy.

He stressed that revolution is a prerequisite for development.

He said, “If we have to say it loud and clear here, we are not in a democracy; we are in a popular, progressive revolution.

“We must necessarily go through a revolution, and we are indeed in a revolution. So this question of democracy or libertinism of action or expression has no place. As much as you think you are free to speak and act, the other is also free to speak and act, and there we end up with a society of disorder.”;

He strongly condemned the notion that democracy is a prerequisite for development, saying it is “false”; to believe any country has developed under a democratic system.

“It is impossible to name a country that has developed in democracy. Democracy is only the result,”; Burkina24, a local media outlet, quoted him.

DAILY POST reports that Traore ceased in September 2022 and has since led Burkina Faso.

The development comes at a time when the ‘Take it Back' movement, led by activist Omoleye Sowore, kicks off another round of protest across major cities in Nigeria on April 7, 2025.

Sowore had been critical of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's government and vociferous in his stance on revolution.
