He was a crazy commie dictator who was going to turn his country into a graveyard.

He was a Soviet/Libya aligned isolationist at a time when the Soviet Union was imploding internally and Libya was behaving erratically due to a drop in oil prices, his policies were dated. His humanitarian efforts were not exceptional for the 80s and he came from an urban background steeped in communist ideology whereas the majority of the population were rural and had loyalty to their tribes, whose traditions he attacked, so it is questionable whether he had popular support. As time went on his attempts to consolidate power and impose his ideology got out of control and drumhead courts began to persecute people for innocuous reasons, including workers and trade unions. He lost the support of his own inner circle and was replaced by the more pragmatic Blaise Compaoré whom he had known for years and helped him rise to power and went on to win.

reminder that French are the true ultimate evil

He was oppressing his people. He was another Che Guevara: a loony who died young but with a handsome face, so retarded redditors such as yourself like to have tshirts with his face on him.

Sounds like Sankara's consolidation of power was justified, considering that he had the right to be paranoid when he was ultimately brought down by one of his closest friends and allies. As soon as Sankara's blood dried, Burkina Faso was pilfered by various IMF schemes while Compaoré grew rich. When you're challenging the French hegemony over West Africa, you better cover your bases, otherwise one of your trusted lieutenants will chimp out over the promise of AC and a BMW.
