August 5 is Independence Day for Burkina Faso, formerly Upper Volta, the land-locked west African nation.
Blaise Campaore has been President of BF since 1987. He owes much of his long and magnificent reign to the uninvestigated death of his predecessor Thomas Sankara and other potential revolutionary rivals.
A rough translation of "Burkina Faso" is "Men of integrity in the father's house".
Please take a moment to honour Independence Day of this nation by standing for the national anthem.
