Military Shock Coup in Guinea-Bissau—Army ARRESTS President, Locks Down Nation! Ibrahim Traore

This video takes you inside the tense hours surrounding the 2025 Guinea-Bissau military takeover — a moment when an already fragile nation slipped into chaos on the eve of announcing its presidential results. For decades, Guinea-Bissau has lived under the shadow of instability, where political factions clashed, institutions crumbled, and the people endured constant uncertainty. In this episode, we explore how years of mistrust, a dismantled parliament, and two rival candidates both declaring victory created the perfect storm that pushed the military to intervene.

Through each chapter, you’ll see how the crisis unfolded step by step: soldiers surrounding key government buildings, shots fired near the electoral commission, borders abruptly sealed, and both the sitting president and opposition leader placed under military custody. This moment did not emerge from nowhere — it grew from a long history of coups, corruption, and institutional weakness.

But beyond Guinea-Bissau, this story reflects a broader shift across West Africa. Movements rooted in sovereignty and PanAfricanism are gaining momentum, shaped in part by leaders like IbrahimTraore whose messages resonate with citizens questioning foreign influence and calling for stronger African-led governance. As AFRICANEWS and other outlets react, the world watches to see whether this marks another turning point in regional politics or a deeper reimagining of power on the continent.

The situation also raises important questions about the future of democracy, the role of the AFRICANUNION, and how nations like BURKINAFASO have influenced new political thinking across the Sahel. This video invites viewers to reflect on whether external models can truly stabilize African states, or whether lasting solutions must come from within — from systems built by Africans, for Africans.

Join us as we break down the events, amplify local voices, and open a space for honest discussion on what this moment means for Africa’s political future, sovereignty, and collective direction.
