Sheikh Ahmad Gumi has issued a strong warning over Captain Ibrahim Traoré’s rejection of Sharia law in Burkina Faso — and the controversy is now attracting major attention across Africa.

In this latest Africa news analysis, we examine the growing clash between Sheikh Gumi and Burkina Faso’s leader Ibrahim Traoré over Sharia law, secular governance, religious freedom, national sovereignty and the future direction of Burkina Faso.
