Burkina Faso Celebrates

Yesterday, in the mid-afternoon, we heard honking all over Ouagadougou. Was it a wedding? But the honking went on longer than usual. In the end, we realized that it was because our neighbouring country, la Côte d'Ivoire, had finally captured their former president. I found an interesting article on the BBC website that gives another side to the story and suggests that it may not be time to celebrate just yet. The article gives some of the background too about how Burkina Faso has been involved and affected by this crisis. It's worth a read. Every new African president starts out with a lot of promise and hope for the country. Please continue to pray for these West African nations. Here is the link www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-12985617
