The Burkinabè dailies this Tuesday comment on international news marked by the postponement of the presidential election in Mali, without forgetting the suspension in Burkina Faso of the newspaper Jeune Afrique (JA). The dean of Burkinabè private dailies publishes a press release dated yesterday Monday and signed by government spokesperson, Rimtalba Jean Emmanuel Ouédraogo, under the headline: 'Presumed grumbling in the barracks: Suspension of all broadcast media of JA in Burkina'. On this subject, Today in Faso, another private daily, bears the headline: "Burkina Faso: The French weekly of 51 bis, rue d'Auteuil, suspended", emphasizing that the latest publications of the pan-African weekly Jeune Afrique are not to the taste of the Burkinabè government. According to the newspaper, 'after a first article reporting +discontent in the barracks+ published last Thursday, September 21, the newspaper in fact returned to the charge yesterday Monday, September 25, 2023'. And to indicate that in its publication this week, the newspaper informs that tensions persist within the army provoking the ire of the Burkinabe authorities who qualify this new article published on the newspaper's website as "lie". The national daily Sidwaya publishes the same press release in which the Transition government highlights that JA has chosen his camp, 'that of intoxication and disinformation orchestrated by occult pharmacies'. Under another chapter, the private newspaper Le Pays returns to the postponement of the presidential election in Mali, asking 'who benefits from the crime?'. He reports that the Malian transition authorities have decided to postpone the presidential election initially scheduled for February 4, 2024. For its part, Today in Faso points out that 'February 4 and 18, 2024, which were the dates not engraved in stone of a constitution which has also experienced a thorough tampering, these 2 dates reserved for the 1st and 2nd rounds of the presidential election are now void.' According to the newspaper's editorial ist, this is a 'second postponement of this major, crucial and expected presidential election, it comes after a first calendar change compared to the timetable established by ECOWAS'. In its ''Look at current events'', L'Observateur Paalga observes that "we saw them coming, the current authorities of Mali". For the newspaper, obviously, the security issue emerged as a major obstacle to holding the presidential election on time. 'And perhaps an opportunity for Colonel Assimi Goïta to play overtime on the Hill of Power and why not to better prepare his candidacy,' comments L'Observateur Paalga.
