We
should celebrate every time a dictator falls because of popular demonstrations.
In the end, dictatorship, abuse of power, human rights violations and absence
of freedom are among the worst things that can happen to a population. And when
they are associated with widespread poverty and lack of economic opportunities,
we have a catastrophic scenario. A nightmare, as they say.
That´s the case in several African countries. Therefore, today´s fall of the Big
Man in Burkina Faso is good news for all the oppressed in many other places of
the Continent. It shows that there is hope. It also shows that people on the
streets in large numbers make history.
