Renowned Malian singer-songwriter Salif Keita has openly backed Mali's military junta, stating that their governance represents the last hope for Mali amid ongoing political turmoil.
Keita expresses that he supports the military due to the perception that Mali was 'sold' and believes the junta has risen to safeguard the people's sovereignty.
Rejecting claims of human rights violations, Keita claims that the military government is overwhelmingly supported by the public, asserting that they enjoy a 99.99% approval rating.
Despite Keita's positive stance, human rights advocates assert that there are serious issues under the junta's rule, emphasizing a stark contrast to Keita's views.
