The African leader breaking the Internet

Burkina Faso’s Captain Ibrahim Traore has become a social media sensation across Africa and beyond, with viral videos and commentary on social media celebrating his anti-imperialist stance.

Is Traore the revolutionary leader his supporters believe or are we witnessing a carefully orchestrated propaganda campaign? We dive deep into the story behind the viral phenomenon.
