The close intellectual of Guillaume Soro in a forum condemns the action of the opposition and the people of Burkina Faso. This forum was in three parts entitled: "a crisis of the meaning of democracy in Burkina Faso", the intellectual, Franklin Nyamsi, Associate Professor of French philosophy Franklin denounced the conditions of the forced departure of Blaise Compaoré.

In the first chapter of his reflection, the former student of the University of Yaoundé began by valuing the balance sheet of the deposed president. "The future, I have no doubt, will be able to recognize that in 27 years as the head of Burkina Faso, president Compaoré will have brought essential light to the country. He ranked alongside leaders like De Gaulle, Houphouët, Nkrumah, Mandela, cited among men of great destiny. For him, it is not the Burkinabé people who deployed in the streets of Ouagadougou in October, but simple vandals and looters.

He also indexes these political groups "including leftist and chauvinistic, confidently declared that they could never achieve the management of the State by a process of electoral competition, specialising in the incitement of the idling crowds at the civil insurrection, but also in the handling of certain corps, which were discovered only after the deceit of which they were victims".

For Franklin Nyamsi, the Burkina Faso crisis is first and foremost a crisis in the African meaning of democracy ". The Associate Professor of philosophy revealed that to achieve power, opposition was formed in network of opportunists without faith or law.
