GADDAFI HAD TO DIE: AND THE REASON IS MORE FASCINATING THAN YOU WERE TOLD
Muammar Gaddafi was a dictator.
That part you’ve heard.
But before he died, he was pushing an idea that could have changed Africa’s relationship with the rest of the world.
Then came 2011.
NATO bombs.
A captured leader.
A brutal death.
And years later… documents surfaced that made people ask a very different question.
The evidence doesn’t prove the conspiracy. But the truth is fascinating enough without it.
Watch until the end.

Dear ladies, this is not just an ordinary clip. It carries a powerful message that I believe every woman needs to hear.
Change while you still have the chance.
Dress decently while you still have the opportunity. Live right while you still have the time.
Don’t let the first day you finally decide to dress decently be the day your body is being washed for burial.
Tomorrow is not promised. What you have the chance to change today, change it today.
Former Liverpool forward Sadio Mané is said to be putting 11.7 billion CFA francs into a mango plant in his home village of Bambali.
He says he wants the money made from his land to remain there. The move reaches beyond football.
The Senegalese player has already given his village a stadium and other basic amenities. He is now putting substantial funds into farming and local enterprise.
He earned a fortune playing abroad, and he is taking a large investment back to Bambali.
Every smartphone sold has a hidden diagnostic menu built into it. Not an app. Not a setting. A menu that most owners never discover exists in the 3-5 years they own the device.
A former mobile repair technician told me:
"Every phone — iPhone or Android — has secret code sequences that unlock hardware tests Apple and Samsung use in their own repair shops. Battery health down to the cell level. Screen dead pixels. Microphone diagnostics. Sensor calibration. You're paying $30-80 at the Genius Bar or a carrier store for tests you could run yourself in 10 seconds, for free."
Here are the hidden codes that unlock your phone's full diagnostic system 🧵
Ibrahim Traore is getting Burkinabes working again, factories are opening at the rate of one a week, Burkinabe are believing in themselves again, Africans all the length and breadth of our continent are regaining their confidence again.
Has Democracy ever achieved this for Africans?
These are the debate that we Africans ought to be having.
After 40 years of Democracy , what did the Burkina people achieved, compared to less than 4 years under Traore.
The economy is firing on all cylinders and the people are happy with themselves.
🇧🇫 The capital of Burkina Faso, Ouagadougou, is under construction. The skyline is changing, thanks to Captain IB.
The so-called democratically elected presidents ruled the country for nearly 40 years after they assassinated Thomas Sankara. They did nothing to develop the country during all those decades, whilst the country has all kinds of natural ressources! Now Captain IB is fixing all the under-development in the country despite being busy with the war on terrorism.
Omar Hassan Ahmad al-Bashir was not a man of great charisma or intellect. Born in 1944 in a dusty northern village, he was a soldier of the old school. Undistinguished, the kind of officer who would never be remembered if history hadn't handed him an opening.
On June 30, 1989, the democratically elected government of Prime Minister Sadiq al-Mahdi was drowning in economic collapse and political infighting. In the early hours of the morning, Khartoum's radios went silent. By dawn, the tanks were in the streets. A stern voice crackled over the airwaves saying that the government had been overthrown. The man behind the coup was this anonymous brigadier named al-Bashir.
Behind him, in the shadows, stood Hassan al-Turabi, a radical Islamist ideologue . Turabi had a vision of Sudan as a theocratic state, and al-Bashir was his useful idiot, the frontman for a regime that would abolish political parties, dissolve parliament, silence the press, and fill prisons with dissidents.
For the next sixteen years, al-Bashir waged total war against the south. This was awar against civilians. His government burned villages and crops, cut off humanitarian aid, and used starvation as a weapon of mass destruction. Two and a half million people died, and the world mostly looked away.
But al-Bashir's masterstroke of evil came in 2003, when rebellion erupted in Darfur, vast, arid region in western Sudan where African ethnic groups like the Fur, Masalit, and Zaghawa finally screamed their rage at being marginalized by the Arab-dominated government.Al-Bashir's response was to unleash hell.
He armed a brutal Arab militia, giving them free rein to terrorize Darfur. They called themselves the Janjaweed, "devils on horseback" and they lived up to the name. Entire villages were wiped from the map. Women were raped in systematic campaigns of humiliation. The Sudanese air force bombed refugee camps. By the time the world started paying attention, three hundred thousand people were already dead and millions displaced.
The United Nations called it ethnic cleansing and did nothing. The United States called it genocide and did nothing. In 2009, the International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant for al-Bashir, the first sitting head of state ever charged with genocide and the dictator laughed. He knew that as long as he kept the military, the Islamists, and his loyalists happy, he was untouchable.
In 2011, South Sudan officially broke away, taking 75 percent of Sudan's oil revenue with it. The wells were in the south; the pipelines were in the north. The country was suddenly, catastrophically broke. Inflation soared; food became unaffordable. Al-Bashir's war machine was running on empty..Then came the protests.

Burkina Faso people are lucky to have Ibrahim Traore. See a visionary leader speaking and see how it is hitting hard on the people. A leader with ideology. He is just like Thomas Sankara. Burkina Faso was destined to succeed. Ibrahim Traore is a good leader.

The tragedy is likely to reignite questions over these trucks' roadworthiness, driver competence and enforcement of road-safety regulations.
