Burkina Faso has issued a new biometric passport without the logo of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS).

The new passport was unveiled by Burkinabe Security Minister, Mahamadou Sana.

Recall Burkina Faso, Niger and Mali, severed ties with ECOWAS following sanctions imposed on them due to military coups.

Responding, ECOWAS accused the three countries was aimed at undermining freedom of movement and common market in the region.

Sana told reporters at the launch of the passport that the change is a realisation of Burkina Faso’s decision to withdraw from ECOWAS, which was made in January.

He said, “On this passport, there’s no ECOWAS logo, and no mention of either. Since January, Burkina Faso has decided to withdraw from this body, and this is just a realisation of the action already taken by Burkina Faso.”
