Burkina Faso: Anti Corruption Law Forbids Officials From Accepting Gifts Over $60

President Marc Christian Kabore

There's an African adage that says, "Three things that a man must know to survive: what is too much for him, what is too little, and what is fitting." For government officials in Burkina faso, any gift worth $60 or 35,000 CFA francs is a fitting appreciation, anything more than that is too much and can get them in jail for 20 years.
