Pouytenga:El Hadj Saïdou Tirogo, Chairman and CEO of Tirogo-Saïdou Chemicals, along with El Hadj Hassane Bougma, manager of BLA LB Energy, have donated ten million CFA francs to the local support committee of Faso Mêbo Pouytenga. This contribution is in anticipation of the official launch of activities in the municipality scheduled for November 7, 2026.
According to Burkina Information Agency, the donors expressed that their contribution was motivated by their strong attachment to their country and a desire to support the vision of the Head of State, Captain Ibrahim Traore. El Hadj Saïdou Tirogo highlighted their belief that even modest initiatives can significantly contribute to the development of Burkina Faso, particularly in the Kouritenga province.
The local support committee of Faso Mêbo Pouytenga has expressed deep gratitude to Tirogo and Bougma for their valuable support towards the development of the commune. Faso Mêbo is a presidential initiative, launched in October 2024 by President Ibrahim Traore, focusing on road infrastructure construction and urban development, including decent housing, sanitation, and green spaces.
The initiative encourages the involvement of volunteers, including students, workers, and retirees, in producing paving stones and encourages donations of materials such as cement and granite. In January 2026, the Council of Ministers established the Faso Mêbo Agency, transforming it into a state-run public institution, which has since expanded to various regions of the country.
