Traore Tests Digital Sovereignty With Recycled Computers in Burkina Faso | Firstpost Africa | N18G



Burkina Faso, under the leadership of Ibrahim Traoré, is launching a digital inclusion programme, repurposing abandoned government computers rather than relying on external aid. Initiated on 14 March, the project, known as “PROTAF”, aims to refurbish old machines and distribute them to underserved communities. Initial collections have restored 22 of 30 computers, while training groups of women in digital skills such as typing and internet use. The initiative forms part of a broader $64 billion National Development Plan focused on reducing poverty, increasing life expectancy, and strengthening territorial control, highlighting the importance of digital infrastructure.

  1. Any country that thinks that they have the power to shut you off with sanction then I think that it's quite to shut your door on them until they withdraw their god like behaviour over a land that is not theirs. S I would then invite and open my door to any other who wishes to come. We must take a stand against bullies and the endless exploitation.or prepare to be crushed into God's own (not their's) earth.

  2. Ibrahim Traore is a very intelligent man and will do anything for his country…He is just majestic, even the way he walks is majestic. He was born to be a leader!!!

  3. Let me make a prediction, Burkina Faso will be the leader in Afrika, even with it's small population, the young man has understood how to run an Afrikan nation, it's all about self sufficiency. He has succeeded where democracy, capitalism and Western education has failed. He has proved that what Afrika needs is a man with a big heart and a gun, who can turn that big heart into.a system.

  4. Democracy and freedom is just a simple tool used by foreign governments to loot, steal, control narratives, and justify a crime on a nation.
    Even if a country practices democracy it would only be safe if the interest of the U.S. and its Western minions are being served. They don't care what system or who lead a nation as per as their interest is being included in decision making.
    I believe it doesn't matter what the system is; Communism, democracy , monarchy, or whatever. Only good leadership matters.
    When we talk about democracy we are talking about politicians. When we talk about politicians, we are talking about greedy cowards selfish corrupt spoiled rich freaks. With politicians, i can't imagine a great and bright future for my country.
