Gourma: Internally displaced persons (IDPs) living in Fada N'Gourma contributed to the presidential Faso Mebo initiative on Tuesday, December 30, 2025, through a significant material and financial donation.

According to Burkina Information Agency, the IDP's contribution consists of 10 tons of cement, 10 wheelbarrows, and a financial contribution of 309,000 CFA francs. With this gesture, they intend to demonstrate their support for the vision of the President of Burkina Faso, Captain Ibrahim Traore, who calls on Burkinab¨ citizens to actively participate in building the nation through their own efforts.

The regional president of internally displaced persons, Moussa Tandamba, stated that this initiative responds to the call of the Head of State inviting every citizen to contribute to the national project. 'Despite our difficult living conditions, we cannot remain on the sidelines of this vision. IDPs are also Burkinabe and must participate in building the country,' he said.

Mr. Tandamba also urged all Burkinabe to contribute to the building of the nation according to their means, whether through donations, community service, or any other civic action. The provincial director in charge of solidarity for Gourma, Paul Yara, praised this act of solidarity and patriotism by the internally displaced persons.

He emphasized that this contribution reflects their strong sense of responsibility and their commitment to the development of Burkina Faso, despite the difficulties they face. Through this action, the IDPs of Fada N'Gourma reaffirm their desire to remain full participants in the national construction process.
