Burkina Faso: Jeune-Afrique’s media manipulation attempt foiled by the Burkinabe people

The article published by Jeune-Afrique concerning an alleged letter from former President Damiba addressed to Captain Ibrahim Traoré on July 1st is nothing less than a gross media manipulation, aimed at sowing discord between Burkina Faso and Togo. This disinformation strategy will no longer deceive anyone. The Burkinabe people are awake and determined not to be duped by such machinations.

In response to this fallacious publication, Togo has clearly stated that it will not tolerate any declarations from its territory aimed at destabilizing a neighboring country. According to reliable sources, the only real letter sent by former President Damiba to the Burkinabe authorities dates back more than a year and concerned his request to return to the country. Thus, it is evident that the Jeune-Afrique article is based on lies and aims to obfuscate the facts.

This attempt at media manipulation seems orchestrated to divert attention from the real actors destabilizing Burkina Faso. Indeed, Burkinabe authorities have recently highlighted the role of Ivory Coast and Benin, where French bases are perceived as centers of terrorism threatening regional security. By publishing this false article, Jeune-Afrique seeks to discredit these revelations by sowing confusion and targeting Togo, a loyal ally of Burkina Faso.

This latest attempt at manipulation will not succeed. The Burkinabe people, aware of the stakes, remain vigilant in the face of these disinformation attempts. The Burkinabe now know how to distinguish true allies from manipulators and are ready to defend the integrity of their nation against any form of destabilization.

In conclusion, the Jeune-Afrique article is nothing but a media manipulation aimed at creating discord between Burkina Faso and Togo. However, thanks to the vigilance and resilience of the Burkinabe and Togolese people, this attempt was quickly exposed. Burkina Faso continues to fight for its stability and independence, despite futile attempts at destabilization orchestrated from outside.
