Since Monday April 22, 2024, the president of the movement, Captain Ibrahim Traoré has been in the great west of Burkina, right in Bobo-Dioulasso where he was welcomed by a large crowd. Just as he was given a long ovation in Houndé, the capital of the Tuy province he crossed to reach Bobo-Dioulasso. During his stay in this part of Burkina, the Head of State visited the Cascades region on Tuesday 23 April, where he benefited from the same warm welcome. But most of this presidential stay takes place in Bobo-Dioulasso.
The highlight of the President of Faso, Captain Ibrahim Traoré, will undoubtedly be the official launch of the 21st edition of the Week of National Culture (SNC), on Saturday April 27, 2024 on the esplanade of General Aboubacar Sangoulé Lamizana sports stadium. He will be given the opportunity to see the energy of the Burkinabe people again, especially young people, for his leadership. In Bobo-Dioulasso and indirectly in the west of the country, this has a special flavor, to the extent that it seems that the department, under the leadership of Captain Ibrahim Traoré, has found hope. Hopefully there will be economic and social recovery.
In fact, since he came to the Burkinabe head of state, Captain Traoré and his team have paid special attention to the socio-economic development of the city of Sya and the rural area. As proof, on Saturday September 23, 2023, the Head of State laid the foundation stone for a tomato processing factory in Bobo-Dioulasso. A production unit whose first tomato boxes are expected in July 2024 and which should generate at least 150 direct jobs and more than 10,000 indirect jobs for women and young people. Then, on Friday December 15, 2023, it was the launch of the Presidential Initiative for Community Development in Bobo-Dioulasso, when rehabilitation work began on Mahamadou Konaté Avenue in Sikasso-Cira.
This stay will only give more enthusiasm to many supporters of Captain Traoré and his transitional government. Because of!
During their stay in the Hauts-Bassins region, in addition to the opening of the SNC, Captain Ibrahim Traoré will “chair the ceremonies launching the development and asphalting of roads in the town of Bobo-Dioulasso and rehabilitation and asphalting work on national road No. 08, Moami-Orodara-Koloko Mali border,” informs the communication service of the Presidency of Faso. And that’s not all! The Head of State will also “lay the first stone of the Burkina Faso Textile Forces Industrial Center (TEXFORCES -BF) and establishing an edible oil production unit, according to the same source. Suffice it to say that the people of this part of the country have reason to knight Ibrahim Traoré falling into a cult of personality.
