Dozens of supporters, both on motorcycles and in vehicles, awaited their arrival at the prominent roundabout on the Loumbila bypass road, just a few kilometres from the capital city, Ouagadougou.

Recall that in a move to curb the activities of terrorists in the Sahel region, Mali, Niger, and Burkina Faso, the three nations comprising the Alliance of Sahel States (AES) had announced plans to deploy a unified military force of 5,000 troops to counter growing terrorist threats in the region.

The force will include aerial, ground, and intelligence capabilities alongside a dedicated coordination system.
