The African Union said Monday it had suspended Burkina Faso in response to the January 24 coup that ousted President Roch Marc Christian Kabore.

The bloc’s 15-member Peace and Security Council said on Twitter it had voted “to suspend the participation of #BurkinaFaso in all AU activities until the effective restoration of constitutional order in the country”.

The West African bloc ECOWAS suspended Burkina Faso on Friday and sent a delegation to meet with the ruling junta Saturday.The coup is the latest bout of turmoil to strike Burkina Faso, a landlocked state that has suffered chronic instability since gaining independence from France in 1960.

Good governance remains the only potent remedy to coups in Africa

I think countries existed before ecowas came into existence, so it means nothing to them, look at Cameroonian president now ecowas will not do something about it now but when a coup comes up then they will come out

Ana ko

AU should speak against non provision of good governance. This may be one of the reasons why coup takes place.

Everyone is saying Bullshit around Africa.

AU-UN & co are All useless

is a right step in right direction, hope Nigeria is not preparing for one?

What a rubbish from Africa union, people are dieing daily in Africa most especially country where this coup happened and Africa union never sanction civilian ruler in those countries,now that the military are stepping in to rescue African from total collapse

I guess It will happen here in Nigeria after 2023 election.

Why didn't they suspend Guinea

ECOWAS must avoid imposing economic sanctions on Burkina Faso. The B/F economy is already struggling. Economic sanctions will make the fight against Islamic extremists even harder.
