Assassination of Sankara on October 15: “Meditate on the deep meaning of our national anthem and the anthem of the revolution”, Apollinaire Kyelem of Tambela

Prime Minister Apollinaire Kyelem de Tambela remembers two historical dates of the man. March 26, 1983, was the day that Thomas Sankara revealed himself to the world, during his speech delivered at the Place du 3 January, which subsequently became the Place de la Revolution. The second date is October 2, 1983, the date of the vision of the revolution. And unfortunately, October 15 is the date of the victory of darkness over light. The PM asks the Burkinabè to “Meditate on the deep meaning of our national anthem and the anthem of the revolution”.
