Original Note:
French/CIA involvement is pure speculation and not factual. The 1987 Burkina Faso coup d'état was a bloody military coup in Burkina Faso, which took place on 15 October 1987. The coup was organized by Captain Blaise Compaoré against incumbent far-left President Cpt Sankara. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-34277045
