It has become the 2nd francophone country to do that after Mali. The current president of Burkina Faso, captain traore is just 34 years, making him the youngest president in the world.
Just like Thomas Sankara, he has reduced his salary and that of his cabinet members.
During a meeting with his Malian counterpart , he hinted about forming a federation with Mali, since both economies has gold as its primary source of revenue.
They now plan to mine gold and print currencies in their respective countries rather than using the CFA currency that is printed and regulated by France.
I wish every country in Africa can emulate this. Long live Mali!!! Long live Burkina Faso!!!!
