Burkina Faso: For the sake of the country, the union of Burkinabe must prevail in the fight against terrorism

In the ongoing battle against terrorism, Burkina Faso’s armed forces, led by President Ibrahim Traoré, are demonstrating remarkable courage and professionalism.

Every day, these dedicated men and women risk their lives to protect the nation’s integrity, confronting relentless adversaries to ensure the safety of their fellow citizens.

In light of the immense sacrifices made by the military, it is essential for all Burkinabe—regardless of social class or age—to set aside personal egos and interests.

Internal divisions and personal agendas only serve to undermine the monumental efforts being made on the ground.

Now, more than ever, prioritizing national unity and placing the interests of Burkina Faso above all else is crucial.

The call to action is clear: the nation must rally behind its armed forces, foster national cohesion, and wholeheartedly support initiatives aimed at eradicating terrorism.

Together, united in patriotism and respect for those who defend the country, the Burkinabe people have the opportunity to build a stronger, more resilient nation in the face of ongoing challenges.
