“Burkina Faso Breaks Language Barriers: English and French Officially Recognized as Working Languages Alongside National Tongues”

Burkina Faso’s National Assembly recognizes English and French as working languages, alongside national languages. French remains the administrative language, while English is used in the government. This move aims to improve communication and promote the use of national languages in education, law, and administration. Over 60 national languages are spoken in Burkina Faso, with the majority of the population using them.
