Léo:Comrade Nebnooma Alimata Sebgo has been officially installed as the Prosecutor of Faso at the High Court of Léo and Government Commissioner of the Administrative Court of the same locality. She is the first woman to head this court and the only woman currently holding such a position in Burkina Faso.

According to Burkina Information Agency, Sebgo was appointed by decree no. 2026-1207/PF/MJ/MEF on October 26, 2026, and was inaugurated on November 6, 2026. The installation ceremony was held under the chairmanship of Comrade Hervé Démé, President of the High Court, with notable attendees including the Attorney General of Faso, High Commissioners Tewende Isaac Sia and Saïba Zoromé, and various officials and authorities.

Previously serving as Deputy Prosecutor at the Ouaga 1 High Court, Sebgo expressed her awareness of the significant responsibilities she now faces. She emphasized the importance of justice in safeguarding individual freedoms and committed to addressing security and social challenges with rigor and accessibility.

Sebgo's inauguration marks a new chapter for the High Court of Léo, succeeding Hamed Ouattara, who has been appointed as an advisor to the Court of Appeal of Ouagadougou. Ouattara's tenure was noted for the absence of criminal cases between February and June 2026. He encouraged community support for Sebgo, stressing the prosecutor's office's role in staying connected with the people.

His Majesty Lio-Pio Dan-Zwè, Chief of the Léo canton, conveyed mixed emotions about the transition, expressing both the joy of welcoming Sebgo and the sadness of Ouattara's departure. The event signifies a new era for the High Court's mission in serving the Sissili and Ziro provinces.
