The Economic community of West African States (ECOWAS), West Africa’s regional bloc, has suspended Burkina Faso in the aftermath of a military coup,

A mission of ECOWAS chiefs of staff will fly to Burkina Faso today and they will be followed on Monday by ministerial-level envoys.The leaders will meet again on February 3 in Accra to assess the outcome of these missions and see whether additional sanctions should be imposed along with suspension, a summit participant told the AFP news agency.

In the past 18 months, the 15-nation ECOWAS has suspended two other members – Guinea and Mali – where coups have occurred. Mali’s coup leader has said that will not be met, citing security conditions, and has announced a vote four years from now instead. According to the minister, Nigeria is fully in support of the ECOWAS demand for an immediate return to civil rule, release of the incarcerated President Roch Marc Kabore and total cooperation with the regional body in the process of sorting out the current situation.
