Unified Socialist Party (Burkina Faso)


Unified Socialist Party is a political party in Burkina Faso. PSU was founded in 2001, following a split from the Burkinabè Socialist Party.
The party is led by Benoît Lompo. PSU is part of the United Burkinabé Opposition and the Socialist Alliance. However, the decision of the Socialist Alliance to support Dr. Emile Paré in the 2005 presidential elections has strained the relations between PSU and OBU.
