Since the afternoon of this Tuesday, May 2, 2023, alarmist messages launched in particular on social networks, report supposed threats to the Mogho Naaba palace, and call on citizens to mobilize for the defense of the said palace.
The Government reassures the Burkinabè public that this is not the case and calls on honest citizens to distance themselves from these machinations and to calmly go about their business.
It informs the populations that these subversive allegations are made by individuals instrumentalized with the intention of disturbing public order and sowing disorder.
The government strongly warns those responsible for these publications and their sponsors and warns that those involved in these maneuvers will be subject to the full rigor of the law.
Ouagadougou May 2, 2023, the spokesperson for the Burkinabè government
