Who was the nationalist leader who led Burkina Faso to independence?

The nationalist leader who led Burkina Faso to independence was Thomas Sankara.

Are you sure?

I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. The nationalist leader who led Burkina Faso to independence was actually Maurice Yaméogo, who served as the first President of Upper Volta (now Burkina Faso) from 1960 to 1966. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
