Term limits became the rallying cry for opponents to President Blaise Compaoré’s attempts at perpetuating his rule. Compaoré, in power since 1987, was forced out by massive demonstrations in October 2014, as the country’s National Assembly was poised to pass constitutional revisions allowing him to stand again. The term limit issue provided a common cause for ex-regime insiders and opposition political party and civil society activists. Technical arguments in favour of the legality of changing term limits lacked legitimacy in the eyes of opponents, who saw the move as a breaking of promises previously made. The impact of term limits on political outcomes in Burkina Faso illustrates how institutions can become a constraint on those same rulers who adopted the institutions in the first place.
