Message: [QUOTE="Nehanda, post: 30068, member: 2262"] The young leader of Burkina Faso said no to more money in his paycheck. President Ibrahim Traore, just 37 years old, wants to stay true to helping regular people. He took control through a military takeover last year and has already fought hard against dirty dealings in government. He told everyone exactly how much he has—$128,566—and keeps taking home the same pay as when he served as a regular soldier. Traore gave all government workers a clear deadline—show what you have by March 24, 2025, or face legal trouble fast. This rule comes as part of his bigger fight against wrongdoing, which also stops government workers from making business deals with the country itself. This clever move cuts off the common practice of people using their government jobs to make themselves rich. The president wants a clean system where public service means actually helping the public. The president's promises go beyond stopping corruption. He made a firm pledge to improve healthcare for everyone in Burkina Faso. He believes no person should need to leave the country just to see a good doctor. This important step aims to ensure that all citizens can visit hospitals and clinics when they need help, regardless of their cash situation. President Traore represents a fresh approach compared to those who came before him. By living simply and demanding honesty from others who serve in government, he shows what public service should look like. His actions send a clear message that leadership means putting citizens first, not personal bank accounts. Through these direct changes, he hopes to build a fairer Burkina Faso where the government truly works for its people. [/QUOTE]
