Ouagadougou: The President of Faso, Captain Ibrahim TRAORE received in audience this Tuesday late morning the Pan-African Movement Africa and the Diaspora. The movement is united with the struggle led by Burkina Faso and wants to provide support for achieving the objectives of the Transition.
‘We spoke with the President of Faso on issues related to the revolution in Burkina Faso. As a Pan-Africanist movement, we are witnesses to what is happening in Burkina and we cannot remain on the sidelines of this,’ declared the spokesperson of the delegation, Dr Khanysile Litchfield TSHABALALA, at the end of the audience.
The discussions focused on four points. The first relates to the movement’s desire to organize trade missions to Burkina Faso. The second point concerns strengthening the capacities of women and children. ‘This requires a political revolution, because women and children are very exposed to manipulation,’ said Dr. TSHABALALA.
The third point concerns strengthening the capacities of the public servic
e and civil servants, and finally the fourth point relates to peace and security. ‘We are tired of seeing United Nations peacekeeping missions coming to Africa while people continue to be killed,’ she said.
According to the president of the Pan-African Movement Africa and Diaspora Winnie Auma OGWENO alias Winnie Mandela, the main mission of this organization is the economic, political and social liberation of Africa. ‘We want to make sure that the empires and kingdoms remain intact, that we keep our cultural identities,’ she stressed.
