Burkina Faso junta suspends biggest student union and arrests leader
It is the latest salvo in the ongoing crackdown on independent organisations by the military authorities which seized power in a 2022 coup.
Burkina Faso's military government has suspended the National Union of Burkinabe Students (UNB) and detained its leader. This action is part of a broader campaign by the ruling junta, which took power in a 2022 coup, to suppress independent organizations. The government has not yet provided specific reasons for the suspension and arrest of the student union.
The move raises concerns about the shrinking space for civil society and dissent within Burkina Faso under military rule.
