Thyou:Students from the Departmental High School and the General Education College (CEG) in Thyou participated in a clean-up day at the new territorial gendarmerie brigade site in the town on Saturday.

According to Burkina Information Agency, the initiative was organized by the heads of the two secondary schools to promote a clean and safe environment for the defense and security forces. It also aimed to demonstrate the civic and patriotic commitment of the educational community.
