Is there someone here on Twitter who can communicate with the ancestors?

I want to connect to Thomas Sankara and tell him that in South Africa, we have Africanist socialists who support the European luxury goods industry - the elite symbol of classism.
Thomas Sankara: "sold off the government fleet of Mercedes cars and made the Renault 5 (the cheapest car sold in Burkina Faso at that time) the official service car of the ministers."
He reduced the salaries of well-off public servants (including his own) and forbade the use of government chauffeurs and first class airline tickets.
He opposed foreign aid, saying that "He who feeds you, controls you".
He spoke in forums like the Organization of African Unity against what he described as neo-colonialist penetration of Africa through Western trade and finance.
He called for a united front of African nations to repudiate their foreign debt. He argued that the poor and exploited did not have an obligation to repay money to the rich and exploiting.
In Ouagadougou, Sankara converted the army's provisioning store into a state-owned supermarket open to everyone (the first supermarket in the country).
He forced well-off civil servants to pay one month's salary to public projects.
He refused to use the air conditioning in his office on the grounds that such luxury was not available to anyone but a handful of Burkinabés.
As President, he lowered his salary to $450 a month and limited his possessions to a car, four bikes, three guitars, a refrigerator, and a broken freezer.
The above are some of the things I found on the internet.

I don't agree with all of his policies, but at least he was henest and true to his principles!

Unlike these Gucci revolutionaries who talk Left but walk Right. Living and dressing like elites in their ivory towers.
