Boniface Vallée

Boniface Vallée (born May 10, 1962) is a Sonalali politician. He was the leader of UNION from 2006 to 2022. Vallée advocates for reunification with Sagofagia, making him one of the most polarizing politicians in Sonalalia.
On October 2, 2021, Vallée survived an assassination attempt by two men linked to a Sonalali nationalist gang. The assailants opened fire on Vallée, who was hospitalized for his injuries. The attack sparked outrage in Sagofagia, further straining relations between the two nations.
After the assassination attempt, Vallée continued his political career. However, on August 6, 2022, he stepped down as leader of UNION following a foiled attack a week prior. He remained a member of the National Assembly until November 1, 2023.
On November 1, 2023, the Sonalali High Court banned UNION, citing alleged ties between the party and Sagofagia. The court deemed the party a threat to national security. The ban sparked protests and outrage from UNION supporters, who claimed it was politically motivated.
