Captain Ibrahim Traoré has questioned why nearly 1,000 Burkinabè students in Saudi Arabia are studying Sharia and Islamic law instead of vocational or technical fields that could support Burkina Faso’s development.
He noted that none of the students are enrolled in programmes that would directly benefit the country.
Traoré said authorities are reviewing the overseas scholarship programme to better align it with national priorities.
He remarked: “We have identified nearly 1,000 young Burkinabè students in Saudi Arabia. The surprising thing is that they are all learning Sharia and Islamic law. None of them are learning a trade. My question is this: they want to learn this Sharia in order to come and apply it in which country?”
@Bicamms@LuluHaangala@Chaandaa1 Ine I'm pro choice 100%. It's not easy for a woman to just decide that she doesn't want HER pregnancy to continue. She goes through a lot and for her to reach that stage, her reasons do not have to make sense to me... Because I'M NOT IN HER SHOES.
@LuluHaangala Lulu, some people here think that because the law has conditions attached to abortion then abortion is illegal.
Question: Do speed limits on our roads make driving illegal? 🤔
