Guh. Got this crossed with the other coup leader.

You aren’t totally wrong though, Traoré is the de facto leader of the entire Alliance of Sahel States (ASS) in addition to being the leader of Burkina Faso.

Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso form ASS, an impromptu anti-colonial alliance formed to oppose ECOWAS, France, Nigeria and ISIS/Western backed jihadists. They are aligned with Russia.

I kinda read your comment as saying, if Niger can do it, Burkina Faso should at least try.
