Burkina Faso's Government Downplays Displacement Crisis Amid Rising Extremism

Credited from: APNEWS

  • Over 2.5 million people in Burkina Faso have fled due to violence from Islamist extremists and pro-government forces, seeking safety and basic needs.
  • The military junta, which assumed power two years ago, dismisses the reality of displacement, promoting a narrative of improved security and safety.
  • Displaced individuals in the capital, Ouagadougou, report being marginalized and lack access to aid or government support, with many resorting to begging.
  • A growing humanitarian crisis exacerbates tensions, with some ethnic groups facing discrimination and violence, particularly the Fulani community.
  • While authorities in Ouagadougou maintain a façade of normalcy, violence has escalated across the country, leading to a precarious existence for those displaced.
