Tenkodogo: The youth of Zonsé, a town located approximately 70 kilometers from Tenkodogo in the area known as the “Three Zs,” donated 3.5 tons of cement, wheelbarrows, and gloves, valued at 450,000 CFA francs, to the presidential Faso Mêbo initiative for the beautification and improvement of living conditions in the Nakambé region. The donation ceremony was held in the presence of Lieutenant Abdoul Fatah Sawadogo, commander of the Faso Mêbo brigade in Nakambé.

According to Burkina Information Agency, speaking on behalf of the president of the youth of Zonsé, representative Lassané Gouba stressed that this gesture was born from the conviction that the development of Burkina Faso depends above all on the commitment of its own sons and daughters.

‘We are here to contribute to the building of our country. Our primary motivation is ourselves, because what we build today will benefit our children and our community. The president said it: no one will come to build Burkina Faso for us. We are certain that our donat
ion will serve a concrete purpose for the development of our region,’ he said.

He stressed the importance of dignity and civic responsibility, stating that the youth of Zonsé refuse to be sidelined or to let others write the history of local development without their participation.

Upon receiving the donation, Lieutenant Abdoul Fatah Sawadogo expressed his gratitude and praised it as “a powerful act of patriotism and civic maturity.” He encouraged the youth of Zonsé to continue their awareness campaigns to inspire other communities to join the initiative, emphasizing that Faso Mêbo is above all a collective endeavor.

This action by the youth of Zonsé is part of a process of taking ownership of community development. It serves as a reminder that local mobilization remains an essential pillar for strengthening cohesion, dignity, and progress in the Nakambé region.
