Burkina Faso’s Ibrahim Traore Gets AI Praise From Beyoncé, Pope | Firstpost Africa | N18G

AI-generated videos featuring global figures like Beyoncé, Justin Bieber, R. Kelly, and even the Pope are flooding West African social media, all singing praises of Burkina Faso’s military leader, Captain Ibrahim Traore. Though fake, these deepfakes have gone viral—amplifying Traore’s popularity and promoting a growing personality cult. Experts say the campaign blends digital propaganda with pan-African messaging, aiming to boost his image at home and across neighbouring states. While some of the videos are monetised by independent creators, others appear linked to pro-junta cyber units. With Traore’s anti-West stance rising, digital adoration is fast becoming a key tool of power.

  1. 🌍 Let the Westerners Chase Another Planet 🌍
    By the Voice of Africa’s Soil

    Let the Westerners chase another star,
    A planet far, where their riches are.
    If their lands run dry of gold and grain,
    Let them ride the winds of space-bound train.

    But Africa is rising—not reborn,
    For we are not children of the corn.
    We are the flames of ancient light,
    The keepers of time, of truth and might.

    Before their ships kissed our shores,
    We built with wisdom, opened doors—
    Ghana’s gold, Mali’s might,
    Songhai’s scholars, blazing bright.

    Salt from Taghaza, worth its weight,
    Caravans crossing Heaven’s gate.
    Ethiopia, cradle proud and tall,
    Axum’s script upon the wall.

    The Nile once wrote our sacred verse,
    Long before their hunger grew perverse.
    They came with greed, called it divine,
    But we knew stars before their shine.

    Now they seek what they have spent,
    Digging holes in firmament.
    Let them voyage, let them roam—
    Africa is staying home.

    Not begging, broken, bruised or bare,
    But standing strong with braided hair.
    Regaining thrones we never lost,
    Counting freedom, not the cost.

    Civilization is not a suit,
    Nor a crown, nor foreign loot.
    It’s found in drums and stories told,
    In hearts that never have been sold.

    So, if Earth can’t fill their hungry eyes,
    Let them chase those empty skies.
    But Africa will write again,
    Not in chains—but with the pen.

  2. This Wonderful Leader Of Burkina Faso 🖤.. That Became The President Of His Nation.. He Is Still A Captain/But At The Same Time!! He Are The Highest Ranking President Of The Nation That He Governor And Built From His Mind Of Having Great Wisdom & Knowledge 🤓🎓 🏗️🚧. And Are Respected All Over The World.. From Other Continent's To All The Islands 🏝️ All Around The World. ( DonaldD 🌎🌍🦬🪶 ).

  3. ##TRAORE
    PLEASE LEAVE HIM ALONE. YOU BEING SOUTH AFRICAN SHOULD DO BETTER. THROUGHOUT YOUR REPORT AND SOME OF IT ILL REPORTED, ESPECIALLY THE ELECTION ONE. WHY DIDN'T YOU REPORT, COLONIAL VOTING SYSTEM WAS REPLACED BY THE ORIGINAL AND NOT SO EXPENSIVE SYSTEM. INSTEAD YOU WANT TO PAINT A NARROW MINDED NARRATIVE.
    RESEARCH ON HIS ACHIEVEMENT AND REPORT ON THAT INSTEAD. SAME ON YOU LAST POST.

  4. That is how sad our society has become when we praise what every leader should be doing. In united States old disable citizens are being thrown out on the streets to fend for themselves while truck loads of cash goes to support useless wars.

  5. OH! WAKE UP AFRICA!
    TERRORISM IS A PSYCHOLOGICAL OPERATION FUNDED AND BACKED BY WESTERN POWERS THROUGH THEIR INTELLIGENCE SERVICES (CIA, M16, MOSSAD) creating fake oppositions to create propaganda just to paint a true resistance leader evil to the public and justify invasion. They fund counter coups and fake protests too. Hate the hidden Game not the Pawns. Not only Africa. Study the patterns. All leaders that were murdered (Gaddafi).
    Afghanistan. Pakistan. Israel. Palestine. Nicaragua and list long.

    Don’t listen to the mainstream media, BBC/CNN/AL JAZEERA etc. They are compromised and western backed. Deception and confusion and mislead. For once, humanity leave the news and think. Don’t believe everything you’re told. Mental slavery. Brainwashed.
    Stay woke.

    All those against True Leaders = JUDAS! TRAITOR! BETRAYER! WESTERN PUPPET!
    Africa don’t need democracy we need freedom and sovereignty
    Not neo-colonialism over exploitation and imperialism.

  6. How could you have missed the #1 suspect, the CIA of course. They are noted to want to reverse Tarore's influence and over playing his appeal and then do exactly as you're now doing, point ou it's fake.

  7. The facts that everyone and internet across the continents talk about him whether Ai or not, it's simply shows he is the most powerful and competent African leader as well feared by colonies 🌍 👌
