Celebrating African Excellence:Capt. Ibrahim Traoré to Receive Revolutionary Leadership Award

By Spy Uganda

In a historic moment for Pan-Africanism, the Founding Speaker and Chairman of the Pan African Pyramid (PAP) Andrew Irumba Katusabe, will lead an international delegation of Pan-Africanists to Burkina Faso this January 25th. The visit, a culmination of months of solidarity and shared ideals, will not only serve to strengthen bonds between Pan-African leaders but also to bestow a prestigious award on H.E. Capt. Ibrahim Traoré, recognizing him as a revolutionary front commander for Africa’s quest for self-determination and true independence.

Speaking after a high-level meeting with one of Capt. Traoré’s trusted aides, Winnie Mandela, the PAP Chairman expressed optimism and determination. “Through her, we have received the revolutionary greetings of Capt. Traoré, and we are assured of his eagerness to meet our delegation. Our visit is not just symbolic; it is a reaffirmation that Africans, both on the continent and in the diaspora, stand firmly with him in this struggle for a liberated and self-reliant Africa.”

The meeting took place on Tuesday morning at Kasubi Royal Tombs, in Kampala. “When Winnie surprised me with a call and told me that she was on her way to Kampala to discuss discuss a few things in regards to our travel, my mind ran to organizing a meeting place at a posh Hotel like Fairway Hotel or Serena. However, Winnie shocked me when she chose Kasubi Tombs! When I arrived there and asked her why, she told me that’s the place her African ancestors told her to meet me, and that she fully understood why” Irumba told our reporter.

About President Capt Ibrahim Traori

Capt. Ibrahim Traoré, the charismatic and resolute leader of Burkina Faso, has emerged as a beacon of hope for a continent still grappling with the vestiges of colonialism and neocolonial exploitation. His unwavering commitment to economic independence, security, and the dignity of his people has inspired millions across the continent. Known for his pragmatic yet revolutionary policies, Capt. Traoré has become a living testament to the ideals espoused by legendary Pan-Africanists like Kwame Nkrumah, Thomas Sankara, Julius Nyerere, Patrice Lumumba and Martin Luther King Jr, among others.

Under his leadership, Burkina Faso has taken bold steps to reclaim its sovereignty—both politically and economically. His policies aim to reduce dependency on foreign aid and foster sustainable development through homegrown solutions. Capt. Traoré’s vision for Burkina Faso is one of unity, resilience, and progress, rooted in the principles of Pan-Africanism.

The Pan African Pyramid delegation, which includes members from various countries and disciplines, represents a diverse cross-section of the global Pan-African movement. Their mission to Ouagadougou is twofold: to celebrate Capt. Traoré’s revolutionary leadership and to reassure him that his vision is shared and supported by many Africans worldwide.

The delegation’s visit also serves as a reminder of the importance of celebrating African excellence and leadership. As the PAP Chairman Irumba remarked, “Africa must have the capacity to recognize and honor its own when they do good. Capt. Traoré is a symbol of what we can achieve when we take charge of our destiny.”

This January 25th will undoubtedly mark a significant milestone in the journey toward African self-determination. The Pan African Pyramid and its global members echo the timeless call: Africa, Don’t Agonize_Organize! 

Ouagadougou awaits, as the spirit of Pan-Africanism marches forward.
