Army agrees to arrange polls in Nov 2015

Burkina Faso's army, politicians and civil society leaders agreed to a one-year political transition with elections in November 2015 following highly charged crisis talks on Wednesday.
The talks, mediated by three west African presidents and also attended by religious and tribal chiefs, failed to name a new leader to head the transitional government. But a statement after the meeting said all parties had agreed that an "eminent civilian personality" should take the job.
The trio of presidents had travelled to the capital  to press for the swift return of civilian rule after the military appointed one of its own, Lieutenant-Colonel Isaac Zida, to run the country following last week's ouster of president Blaise Compaore.
