AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Visa & travel access: The US says Burkina Faso is among four West African countries facing full entry bans in 2026, while seven others—including Nigeria—face partial restrictions, meaning more scrutiny and extra requirements for travellers. Deportation pressure on the region: Burkina Faso’s junta joined Nigeria and South Africa in rejecting the US third-country deportation plan, with the US responding by pausing visa issuance in Ouagadougou and tightening rules elsewhere. Tourism-adjacent sport buzz: Nigeria’s U18 team put on a show in Ouagadougou, routing Burkina Faso 98–54 at the FIBA U18 AfroBasket Zone 3 qualifiers—good news for fans planning Sahel sports trips. Safety for travellers: EOCO and INTERPOL stepped up cross-border action against trafficking, migrant smuggling and online scams across West and Central Africa, including schemes that lure people with fake jobs and “business opportunities.” Local travel culture: A Kenyan creator alleges she was scammed in a Burkina Faso “Battle of Nations” voting tournament in Ouagadougou—another reminder to verify events before you book.
