Burkina Faso bar pokes fun at country’s political chaos


Ouagadougou (AFP) – From his bar “Le Procès” (The Trial), in the capital of Burkina Faso, the scene of two coups in eight months, Dao Moumine is the ‘judge’ of a very special court. Here, the sentence is a rum called “CPI” the French initials for the International Criminal Court. “It’s also a question of raising awareness, to show our authorities that justice in a country is very important,” says Moumine, who manages the vibrant bar in Ouagadougou.
