This is the beginning of POWER-HUNGRY mindset that often ruins many dictators. I have always doubted the integrity of this SMALL BOY called Traoure. "Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely." We live to see the outcome of his dictatorial rule.

The description scrap caused confusion in my mind. For me the electoral commission has been made a department under the ministry of Interior and its no longer a stand alone commission. But it has not been scrapped off entirely.

You are so wrong, Traore! What happened to government of the people, and by the people? Socialism, and communism, is a sham. Even China and Russia are no longer communist states. Enough of the autocracy and the power greed!!!

Oyiwa,where are my beloved imbeciles who were yearning for a coup e’tat in Ghana because their party was in opposition,they’re quite now because their party is in power,I guess they are the same people clapping for the populist nonsense going on because they are not Burkinabe,has the military government been able to defeat the jihadists,that being the excused used to overthrow the civilian government? Kwame Nkrumah was voted African of the Millennium by people who never experienced his dictatorship and whose money he never squandered so stay in Ghana and clap for Traore for afterall you’re not Burkinabe and therefore you have nothing to lose.

Nonsense things. See your life. Beginning of President-for-life in One Start. Match Commisioner, Coach, Referee, Defender, Forward, Mid fielder. Same Campoare journey. Lest we forget, all African strong men including Nkrumah, Mugabe, Kaunda, Nyerere, Idi Amin, Mobutu Sese Seko, Eyedema, JJ Rawlings, Campoare, where hailed as revolutionaries and champions of African independence till their dictatorship became relics of greed and avarice.
