Former President Ibrahim Boubacar Keita is hospitalized in a private clinic in Bamako

Malikilé, and his state of health is stable, but he could be evacuated abroad to receive more appropriate medical treatment.

IBK was said to have suffered a stroke,

without serious consequences and is in stable and conscious condition.

The former Malian president had appeared weak lately,

Malikilé, especially when he declared his resignation on August 18, and concerns only grew during his detention in the Kati barracks 15 km from Bamako.

[…] The health of the former president was very fragile before his fall, therefore.

The multiple almost clandestine trips he made on board Air IBK One were aimed at visits and other medical checks.

This was also an open secret,

which poses the endless question of the omerta which surrounds the health of our governors.

L'Indépendant

has been hospitalized since Tuesday.

According to some sources, he went to the hospital for a routine check-up.

Other sources indicate that he was rather the victim of a transient ischemic attack (less serious than a stroke).

His last check, scheduled for August 20 abroad, could not take place due to the overthrow of his regime on August 18.

from medical sources, there is more fear than harm,

President IBK held on and is said to have already returned home to Sébénikoro.

cumbersome

these appointments somewhat contradict the military's promises to let the Malian forces decide the organization and content of the transition.

In fact,

while they repeat to the Malians as well as to the international community that it will be up to the people to decide in full sovereignty, the soldiers are striving to consolidate their positions as key players in the transition. .

Everything that has been done for a few days refers to a maneuver intended to put Malian politicians and civil society in front of a fait accompli.

two weeks after the coup, Mali is still looking for a way.

If the Military Committee for the Salvation of the People has initiated consultations with political actors such as those of civil society, nothing concrete has emerged for the moment: no government, no president of the transition, even if each of the actors whether from the political class, civil society or even the CNSP seems to have his idea. 

Info-Matin

of the soldiers who completed the work of the opponents of President IBK, those of the protesters grouped within the M5-RFP and those of the now ex-collaborators of the fallen regime.

There's no point in playing the clock.

Because, the more the junta drags its feet in the start of the transition, the more doubt will settle in people's minds.

Both Malians and the international community.

And that may further complicate the situation.
