 You are welcome back now to other parts of Africa. The body of Burkina Faso's revolutionary leader, Thomo Sankara, has been reburied alongside 12 of his comrades at the sport where they were assassinated in a coup three decades ago. The ceremony was held in presence of Prime Minister of Burkina Faso, Apollina de Tambela. Sankara came to power in August 1983 as an army captain. Nicknamed Africa's Che Guevara, he was a fiery Marxist-Leninist who blasted the West for neo-colonialism and hypocrisy. He changed the country's name from the colonial era Upper Volta to Burkina Faso, meaning the land of honest men, and pushed through a range of reforms including promoting vaccination and banning female genital mutilation.
