Kwaw Kese’s tweet about a ‘coup’ sparks reactions on social media, Ghanaian musician Kwaw Kese has expressed concern over the ongoing political instability in Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger through a tweet.
He hopes that Ghanaian politicians are paying attention to the regional turmoil as the West African region grapples with challenges like armed conflicts and political upheavals.
In May 2021, Mali experienced a military coup where the President, Prime Minister, and Minister of Defence were captured and stripped of their powers by the Malian Army led by Vice President Assimi Goita.
In September 2022, a coup d’etat took place in Burkina Faso, and just recently, on July 26, 2023, soldiers appeared on national TV in Niger to announce the ouster of President Mohamed Bazoum.
Kwaw Kese’s tweet reads, “Whatever is happening in Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger is not too far away from Ghana.
I hope our politicians are taking notes.”
