Last update: 5 hours agoYouth Football: Ouagadougou hosts the WAFU-B U-17 qualifiers from October 10 to 23, with seven visiting teams joining Burkina Faso. The country’s women also beat Equatorial Guinea 3-1 in an Olympic qualifying match at the 4 August Stadium. Public Finances: The government’s 2027 draft budget projects 4,220.4 billion CFA francs in revenue against 4,839.4 billion in spending, prioritising agriculture, industry, defence and social services. A separate dry-season plan earmarks 254.79 billion CFA francs and 750 subsidised boreholes. Foreign Relations: President Ibrahim Traoré has ruled out restoring ties with France as Burkina Faso deepens its relationship with Russia and its Sahel allies. The shift raises questions about whether changing partners will deliver greater autonomy. Mining: West African Resources reported record quarterly gold output of 127,950 ounces from its Burkina Faso mines and says it remains on track to meet annual guidance. Football Governance: Traoré’s plan to intervene in the football federation after the 7-0 Argentina defeat risks a FIFA suspension if it is judged to breach rules against government interference.
