Burna Boy wanted to do a free concert over there and Ibrahim basically said thanks, but no thanks.

If Africa (Burkina Faso at least) is to grow and compete on the world stage, then he's right. There's a reason China limits the social media b.s. but pushes it for the rest of the world.

We gotta grow and come into our own at some point.

Above the fray.
For more context about his comments.
The date of the OP story was 10/15/25

A few days earlier, Oct 9-10, his govt held an international investment forum. He laid out the new rules going forward about trade and foreign investment.
The old "you pimp us for our resources, bribe sellout govt officials, and we make pennies" days are over.
Traore noticed the international interests who are "scared" to do fair business with them in terms of commerce/tech, but who are not scared to back entertainment ventures out of the same country

The biggest resources that Burkina, and many African countries have, is their growing youth population. And his public comments in OP likely mirrors the school curriculum changes that have been implemented to protect that resource and steer them in the direction that benefits them in the future, and not outside interests.


If you can find an accurate subtitled vid or article of the event, you can read his full comments for yourselves
===============================


*I listened to about half of this, the translation in the IG is pretty accurate .

dude is the one person in the country who could marshall state resources into providing the access to tools the youth would need to further their learning in those areas. :gucci:
and he's doing that. the point was to encourage tech development/productive use of their time- in their free time as opposed to bs tiktok dances that won't lead to anythig for them
