Burkina Faso Coup: Michel Kafando ‘Back In Charge’

Burkina Faso’s interim President Michel Kafando has said he is back in charge and civilian rule restored after last week’s military takeover.

His announcement came as coup leader Gen Gilbert Diendere went to welcome several African leaders arriving to oversee the transfer of power.

His presidential guard agreed to a deal overnight with the regular army to avoid violence.

They pledged to return to barracks and the army to withdraw from the capital.

    Stupid general, mukamufyante ma ballz, anyone who gets power through dubious means, whether through the use of guns, pangas, rigging elections, should have his ballz squeezed.
