Kogho:35 students from three secondary schools in Kogho have been awarded scholarships as part of a partnership between the local municipality and the Fonds enfants et jeunes project. The scholarships were presented during an official ceremony presided over by Bia Topan, the president of the special delegation of the Kogho commune.

According to Agence d'Information du Burkina, the scholarships have been awarded to students from the departmental high school of Kogho, the General Education College (CEG) of Tollingui, and Tanghin n°1 College. Each scholarship recipient received an envelope containing 60,000 CFA francs and a scholarship certificate. The initiative is part of a two-year project that began in the 2025-2026 school year and will conclude in January 2027.

Present at the ceremony were members of the committee responsible for selecting the beneficiaries, along with parents and educators. The scholarship program stipulates that recipients must neither repeat a year nor leave the Kogho commune during the support period. Failure to comply with these conditions will result in the cancellation of the scholarship, and the student will be replaced by a candidate from the waiting list.

This initiative aims to support student education and retention in the educational system.
