I am so stunned that my history class taught me more about George Washington, Napoleon, Queen Elizabeth, Winston Churchill and all other overseas leaders and never taught me enough about people like Thomas Sankara. Let me be honest, I just came across this video by accident and from where I am (South Africa) there is not much documented nor even said about leaders of his calibre and this was the first time I even heard that he existed. And from now on, I shall dig every piece of history about him... Rest in peace, Son of Africa.
+Qhawe Teyise Our war in Africa is with VESTED INTERESTS and they certainly do not want many Thomas Sankaras running around in Africa with such esoteric ideas as good leadership, modesty, self sufficiency, respect, accountability and the likes.
where you were two years ago is exactly where i am two years later. This great man of Africa was never taught in the books of history in Kenya. I'm saddened, even our systems choose to omit such great people from the history. From now on, ill dig deeper into this man's past.
Qhawe Teyise south africa is as bourgeois as any other country that isnt cuba or the dprk and as a communust thomas sankara is a threat to them which is why they dont teach about thr reality about communist hustory
Thank you sister for representing this video again to the world about our hero forever. As a Burkinabe, the pain is still a challenge to take away... Thomas Sankara was and will still the true father of all the Burkinabes. Stay blessed 😘
Adeola, I don't know how to thank you for this amazing video for my country Burkina Faso! Stay bleesed your whole life! I love you! May God bless Nigeria, Amen!
Although I agree with you, I think you all should said "One of the best leaders of Africa". You are very young and don't realize that before Sankara, there were Leaders that were like Sankara. They were killed before some of you were born. So please, do some research on some before saying that "Sankara best African leader"
Sankara is the greatest African leader. He lived a life and died a hero. It's such a shame there are many unsung heroes from Africa that aren't taught in our schools. RIP Sir. I'll forever love you.
This will never get old. Thanks for sharing with the entire world a pure paradigm of an upright man, President Thomas Sankara. I’m from Burkina Faso 🇧🇫.
True, but there were positive lights before him. Like Ghana's Kwame Nkrumah and Nigeria's Nnadi Azikiwe & Obafemi Awolowo...but colonialism made sure their stars just like Sankara's never saw the light of day, and ever shrouded in the clouds of their evil grip.
Sankara a great leader with an excellent vision for the future of Africa. I hope that the current Africans leaders follow this model. Sankara’s spirit will be with us for ever:
Sankara my namesake,was truly a man of the people,in 4years of just being power alot was achieved in his country,That is the type of leadership Africa needs,May his soul rest in peace.
Women have always been strong and courageous in revolutionary struggle for the liberation of the oppressed. Thomas Sankara A TRUE REVOLUTIONARY A FRIEND AND BROTHER OF THE OPPRESSED.
Thank you very much Queen for the education. I’ve just watched this video for the second time. After the initial view, I had to watch the history of Africa’s greatest leader in my opinion Thomas Sankara. I appreciate your channel and all that you guys do. It’s so entertaining, I see his spirit in your work. I never would have known so much about Africa if it wasn’t for your channel. May the God of Abraham continue to bless you guys. You guys are priceless to me.
Thank you so much. This is a real tribute to Sankara. Of course, there are many more brilliant things he tried in the country. The loss is unspeakable, but we don't despair. There are new virtuous cycles in store for Burkina Faso, and for Africa.
I don't know why the continent doesn't honor Thomas Sankara. He is the best there was, the best there will ever be from Africa! It has to be mandatory to learn about Thomas Sankara. A quote from the man himself about us Africans "We must dare to invent the future. Everything man is capable of imagining, he can create"
Kudos to the people of Bokina Faso for overthrowing that greedy for power puppet and murderer, who took the life of this brilliant young Panafrikanist who did so much for his people. RIP Thomas Sankara. Thanks for sharing my sister.
Great video! It's so true about killng the ones we should celebrate and celebrating those we should get rid of. Let's start celebrating the great minds before they're gone...
I wish we had such a powerful voice of history and social scientific perspective in journalism in respect of a culture of liberation born from the fire of truth in the United States. I am sold on this channel. All respect to this young woman.
Thank you for covering this! I am not from Africa, or black, but people like you will always have my support and gratitude! Sankara is on my very short list of admired political figures, maybe the headliner.
Thanks Adeola, I was looking for a short clip to educate me about Thomas Sankara and yours did the trick. Great job! Great presenting!!...Great keeping it real!!!
This is really educative... same thing happened to Abiola all becuase they knew he was going to turn around the fortune of the nation... thanks Adeola for making us know more about Thomas Sankara
I have to say, you're amazing in what you do. We are continually inundated with the west's polution and no one ever speaks about our reality here in Africa. The great deeds of these African legends are thrown under the carpet but the nonsense of the outsiders becomes the face on the news. keep up what you're doing, hopefully one day we will celebrate in a better world.
Thanks a lot Adeola. One think you did not mention. Thomas Sankara was the only leader in the world, that his car used to stopped at a traffic light when the light was red. He was truly a leader not a ruler.
it's NOT my country but after watching this i cant help myself tearing up. In every weak nation's history there's always a patriotic man who tried his best to change people's lives for the better. Sad to say he lost his life bec. of friend's white master. Hope to hear someday that this man~Sankara will be relocated in a peaceful place with a hero's burial ceremony😢😢😢. Whata man to remember!
Tomas Sankara was one of a kind. A true African hero. Burkina Faso lost a great man. And Africa lost a great, young, bright, visionary and incorruptible leader and revolutionary. A huge part of Africa died on the day that Sankara was betrayed and murdered by Blaise, with help from his French masters. Sankara's blood will forever be cast upon Burkina Faso. Hopefully, his blood will serve to cleanse things for that country.
I really love Adeola.. Love from Uganda. Thx for keeping it real. It's sad how the real men died and were replaced by stooges. I believe that other Sankaras are rising .Africa must be free .
The death of Thomas Sankara re-vibrated around the world. I remembered vividly as a little boy traveling to Lagos for the first time and hearing the news. As long as Africans are not loyal to one another, this is what you get time and again. Thomas Sankara was told of his friend's plot to assassinate him but he did not believe it. Good people see no evil and hear no evil. RIP Sankara, you've done your best and history will judge all.
Adeola thank you for bringing this to the light of my knowledge, the man is indeed a great leader, but his type are very few and Nigerians should see his age and learn wet need youth to bring that true change we deserve
Abraham Akuok be like him starting from now... don't wait for that kind of opportunity... it may never come. what matters is that we're doing what we can from where we are
Great leader, great presentation... indeed my sister we celebrate those whom we are not suppose to celebrate in Africa, that is the sign of spiritual sickness, we need medical doctors for our physical body but we need spiritual guiders for our spiritual body
Well done Adeola on this episode. Very good coverage of Thomas Sankara and his legacies. Happy for your mention of Fela Kuti, a man who in my opinion was a true prophet of God but whom we failed to understand
I am dedicating today to Thomas Sankara. A great leader he was. A leader who had a mind for his people. Honestly if we could have such leaders who don't have a compromised African mind which is toward the western orientation.
A wonderful documentary about a great African leader up to date. A really love and absolutely appropriate the way you comment about this guy. May God give you good health, long life, and prosperity in whatever you do in life my lovely sister... Ameen
Great job Adeola! As Kenyan I feel that we have lost the unity of our leaders at independence. The spirit of Pan Africanism, our fraternal love and concern for our fellow African people needs to be revived! It's not too late to learn.
SIster Adeola, so much love from Kenya can we adapt you. Girl you need a bigger stage just to educate Africa in general. Thanks to your beautiful mind. Preach sister. Please run for office and wake our people.
Thank you so much for the education I and the world has been missing. I first came across this clip of you on facebook talking about Thomas Sankara, I believe last year and because of you was able to do some more research on him. Unfortunately reading along with watching hour long documentaries is a big issue in our communities, however having you present the information the way you do makes it easier to educate the masses about this great African Leader and eventually we will have real econimical change. Thank you, you're truly amazing keep up the good work!
A true President of an African State,President Thomas Sankara.His fellow Presidents detasted his uprightness.I wish he was still alive to show others the way to go
Hi Adeola, I love your show and I hope you see this comment. The last minute of the show actually saddens me as I don't know anything about those great people you mentioned. Could you do an episode on some of the great leaders of Africa or even an educational series about Africa's heroes, you know, the ones that should be in our history books. Did I mention that I love your show lol? Keep keeping it real!
Whites never to see block man doing good for his country. They come underground to spy and fine ways to distract you and your governments and seize your plans ideas to turn it to their own,at the end they want you to become a borrower so that they will say they help you in another wards stealing you,lets unite Africans brothers and sisters.
I am so stunned that my history class taught me more about George Washington, Napoleon, Queen Elizabeth, Winston Churchill and all other overseas leaders and never taught me enough about people like Thomas Sankara.

+Qhawe Teyise I hope you will share with many of our fellow South Africans bro, I just did...

Sankara was the best leader Africa ever had.
Does your president know the saraki that you all are talking about?
Although I agree with you, I think you all should said "One of the best leaders of Africa". You are very young and don't realize that before Sankara, there were Leaders that were like Sankara. They were killed before some of you were born. So please, do some research on some before saying that "Sankara best African leader"
The very best.
@@MusicShaddyRaddy africans always disagree no matter what you tell them.
So tell them 3 suggestions first and confuse them.
And Lumumba was the best leader Africa never had.
Thomas Sankara is a true revolutionary in every shade! Africa lost an extremely remarkable man. History books should give him more honor
You have no idea he wasn't just Revolutionary. I will called him an African Super Man there will be on African to Super Man Sanikara.
His best friend assassinated him
Sankara is my hero. RIP dear comrade. You live forever in your ideas and your achievements. Love from Kazakhstan 🇰🇿
Thomas Sankara was a great man.
Sankara is the greatest African leader. He lived a life and died a hero. It's such a shame there are many unsung heroes from Africa that aren't taught in our schools. RIP Sir. I'll forever love you.
THOMAS SANKARA... RESPECT FROM RUSSIA
This will never get old. Thanks for sharing with the entire world a pure paradigm of an upright man, President Thomas Sankara. I’m from Burkina Faso 🇧🇫.
Sankara was the best African leader ever.
This was great. We need a Sankara in every single African country.
NEED SANKARA IN EVERY AFRICAN COUNTRY .
Thomas Sankara is the best African President ever and after him, there is none. He is our Hero
True, but there were positive lights before him. Like Ghana's Kwame Nkrumah and Nigeria's Nnadi Azikiwe & Obafemi Awolowo...but colonialism made sure their stars just like Sankara's never saw the light of day, and ever shrouded in the clouds of their evil grip.
Sankara a great leader with an excellent vision for the future of Africa. I hope that the current Africans leaders follow this model. Sankara’s spirit will be with us for ever:
No doubt about it! Thomas Sankara was a great Africa leader.
She meant,
"Africa kills those who they should celebrate.
And celebrate those they should KILL".
C Naijastan lol
C Naijastan Sankara and Samora Machel of Mozambique who was killed in the 80s
+Susan Mugutsi I just regret my being born Africa bc of our egoistic n selfishness against our own blood.shame to us n we have refused to develop
Sankara my namesake,was truly a man of the people,in 4years of just being power alot was achieved in his country,That is the type of leadership Africa needs,May his soul rest in peace.
That is journalism diplomacy...loool
I get teary-eyed every time I recall all the good that he has done for his people.
RIP the great comrade, leader and Revolutionary
Sans doute c'est le meilleur
Women have always been strong and courageous in revolutionary struggle for the liberation of the oppressed.
Thomas Sankara A TRUE REVOLUTIONARY A FRIEND AND BROTHER OF THE OPPRESSED.
but africans never learn from thomas...

What's there to be proud of?Just a history! Bukinafaso is worse now than when Sankara was alive
@@josephkariba8676 stfu we may not be rich but we are honest people and have dignity .
Hi from Dori seno province
Thomas Sankara is one of my favorite revolutionaries RIP Thomas you are one of only a handle full of people that believed in true communism.
well done Adeola, you are opening people eyes, you are the voice of Africa.
Thanks a lot Adeola. One think you did not mention. Thomas Sankara was the only leader in the world, that his car used to stopped at a traffic light when the light was red. He was truly a leader not a ruler.
More than that, he was the only president to ride a bike on public roads (alone).
WOW, first time I am hearing about him!!!! So cold the way he was killed and buried....May his gentle soul #RIP!
it's NOT my country but after watching this i cant help myself tearing up. In every weak nation's history there's always a patriotic man who tried his best to change people's lives for the better.

Thank you for this! Haha such an entertaining speaker
I didn't know this legend. RIP. Great man. Thanks for this video
Captain Thomas Sankara of Burkina Faso is the greatest African leader ever. Captain Sankara was an upright man.
- Africa Must Develop (AMD)
Tomas Sankara was one of a kind. A true African hero. Burkina Faso lost a great man.
And Africa lost a great, young, bright, visionary and incorruptible leader and revolutionary.

Thank you Adeola, you're as great as Thomas Sankara. Africa's deliverance time is at the corner. Long life to you and to your job. Thank you
He was a wonderful man.
I really love Adeola..
Love from Uganda.
Thx for keeping it real. It's sad how the real men died and were replaced by stooges.
I believe that other Sankaras are rising .Africa must be free .
I am here with the Burkina Faso Revolution 💯Thomas Sankara my everything
Thanks for this piece on Sankara. I look forward to following up with some of the other leaders you mention at the end. All best.

Wow. This is you nine years ago. Fine woman. Your history is on point and your discussions are critical for a new and free Africa.
Well said sister when African will be free from wickedness i wonder
Great summary about Sankara. Thoroughly enjoyed this.
HEY GREAT SPEECH AND PRESENTATION. I LOOOOVE YOU. YOU ARE VERY TALENTED YOU ADEOLA FAYEHUN. KEEP IN TOUCH.
Asante, Sista, For Providing.
Thomas Sankara is a great leader. Please can u recommend a living great leader and a living genuine pastor
Adeola thank you for bringing this to the light of my knowledge, the man is indeed a great leader, but his type are very few and Nigerians should see his age and learn wet need youth to bring that true change we deserve
if i had power of presidency, i will be like him(Thomas Sankara)
U wont last trust me...People like Thom Sank r no good for European and American leaders so they ll do everything to get u...
He'll last, he just needs support from countries and his people. They won't come directly come for you, they'll send your brother after you.
Abraham Akuok be like him starting from now... don't wait for that kind of opportunity... it may never come. what matters is that we're doing what we can from where we are
Great leader, great presentation... indeed my sister we celebrate those whom we are not suppose to celebrate in Africa, that is the sign of spiritual sickness, we need medical doctors for our physical body but we need spiritual guiders for our spiritual body
Well done Adeola on this episode. Very good coverage of Thomas Sankara and his legacies. Happy for your mention of Fela Kuti, a man who in my opinion was a true prophet of God but whom we failed to understand
Great video but Magufuli was a Sankara in various aspects and endervours probably a fierce African President ever
This is so enlightening! Thank you Adeola
WOW! Thank you Adeola... I'm really glad you mentioned the likes of Thomas Sankara
Adeola, thank you for your educational program.
Thank you for a fantastic presentation. Sankara was an interesting young man.
I am dedicating today to Thomas Sankara. A great leader he was. A leader who had a mind for his people. Honestly if we could have such leaders who don't have a compromised African mind which is toward the western orientation.

Weldon young Lady, this is the best video I have ever watched. don't be afraid to speak up.
This was great. We need a Sankara in every single African country
or make it one country first, then you don't need as many.
Wouldn’t mind one here. I have opposing views of this man but his integrity is something to idolize.
Thomas Sankara would have said: We already have 1 billion Thomas Sankaras all over Africa
Dayo Aderemi
We need a Thomas Sankara around the world, especially in the USA right now. Change the government, bring about world peace.
