Burkinabè newspaper
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sidwaya is a French-language newspaper in Burkina Faso. It was founded in 1984 following the Thomas Sankara government's closure of the independent Observateur.[1] Among the printed media of Burkina Faso its circulation is second to the reopened L'Observateur Paalga, and Sidwaya is still associated with the government view.[2] Its editor-in-chief in 1984 was Béatrice Damiba who went on to serve as Burkinabé ambassador to Austria and Italy.[3] Notable journalists include Mariam Ouédraogo.[4]
