How CIA, French Intelligence Agency Conspired to Assassinate Thomas Sankara

On April 6, 2022, Burkina Faso’s ex-President Blaise Compaorรฉ was tried, convicted and sentenced in absentia to life imprisonment for murder. It  took 35 years for justice to catch up with him for murdering his revolutionary socialist predecessor, Thomas Sankara (the “Che Guevara of Africa”), in a 1987 right-wing military coup.  How  long will justice take to catch up with the CIA and its French intelligence counterpart, the Direction gรฉnรฉrale de la sรฉcuritรฉ extรฉrieure (DGSE), for what appears to have been their part in masterminding or enabling the plot that overthrew and killed Sankara? As young military officers in Burkina Faso during the 1970s and 1980s, Thomas Sankara and Blaise Compaorรฉ were the best of friends. The two traveled the country playing in a musical band together and Sankara’s parents adopted Compaorรฉ as his parents had died when he was young.

Dagoretti North lawmaker Simba Arati has uttered that Ruto doesn't stand the chance of becoming the next President of Kenya. 

His sentiments followed his ejection which came after he engaged in a fistfight with South Mugirango MP Slyvanus Osoro at the funeral of Kisii Deputy Governor Joash Maangi's father. 

The fight erupted after Arati stirred up annoyance in Ruto's camp by saying, "We have several leaders here in the company of our Deputy PreIdent who have a tainted life. These are fraudsters who should not be allowed to take up any leadership positions," 

He denigrated Ruto's narrative of the dynasties as ambiguous since Kalenjins through Moi reigned Kenya for 24 years. He further proclaimed that Kikuyu's through former president Kenyatta and Kibaki and the current head of state have been in the apex office for 35 years. 

He also portrayed Ruto as a well-heeled individual whose daughter is an ambassador stationed in Poland

His statement, in a way, debilitated Ruto's political stamina in the Kisii region as the locals cheerfully lauded his point of view. 

In line with Arati's utterance, BBI will breathe life and energy to the bustling regions of Kenya. He also acknowledged Uhuru's affirmation that Presidency should revolve and touch other tribes in Kenya aside from the Kalenjin and Kikuyu. 

"Liwe liwalo ni BBI mpaka mwisho," said Simba Arati. 

Simba Arati also proved his optimism in ascending to the top office 2 decades from now.
