Burkina Faso: Thomas Sankara reburied

The former president of Burkina Faso, Thomas Sankara, has been reburied in Ouagadougou by the country’s ruling military junta. The move has divided the family of the late revolutionary leader, whose widow and children boycotted the ceremony on Thursday. Sankara was laid to rest at the spot where he was assassinated in 1987.

Plus, Tunisia’s president Kais Saied has faced a backlash after saying an increase in migration from other African countries was part of a plot. People from other African countries living in Tunisia say they face an increasingly hostile climate in the country.
