Sanaba:The residents of Sanaba, led by the president of the special delegation Moussa Traoré, gathered on November 7, 2026, to participate in an initiative aimed at destroying larval breeding grounds. This event was part of the fourth round of activities for the national day of vector control.

According to Burkina Information Agency, the operation commenced at the Sanaba Health and Social Promotion Center (CSPS) with the presence of the President of the Social Development Party (PDS) and several municipal authorities. Various socio-professional groups, including young people, members of the citizen watch group, Volunteers for the Defense of the Homeland (VDP), and numerous women, took part in the activities.

The nurse on duty, Cheick Coulibaly, noted that the operation, spanning November 7-8, 2026, was focused on identifying and eliminating mosquito breeding sites. This involved visiting homes and neighborhoods to remove containers and objects capable of collecting water. Participants successfully canvassed the three districts of Sanaba, collecting and destroying over 200 used tires along with garbage and containers that could foster mosquito breeding.

The event also provided an opportunity to educate households about effective sanitation practices. Officials, including PDS Moussa Traoré and nurse Cheick Coulibaly, emphasized the importance of creating proper drainage systems to prevent water stagnation, thereby reducing the risk of malaria and other diseases linked to unsanitary conditions.

In concluding the activity, PDS Moussa Traoré encouraged participants to continue spreading awareness within their communities and to adopt sanitation practices as a daily routine. He appealed for continuous collective efforts to diminish mosquito proliferation and safeguard public health.
