In Gogo, Burkina Faso, members of a citizen’s group reaffirmed their support for the People’s Progressive Revolution (RPP) and Captain Ibrahim Traoré, the country’s president, during a ceremony inaugurating the 133th roundabout built in the municipality.

The event brought together local leaders including Issa Tiendrebeogo, president of the special delegation of Gogo, and representatives from surrounding regions. The Nabikinga of Gogo, a local chief, praised the citizen’s group for building the roundabout, viewing it as a symbol of community mobilization.

Alassane Dipama, the cooperative leader who initiated the ceremony, stated the group’s support for the RPP has been consistent since the revolution began. The cooperative also reported it trained 600 women to make Koko Donda cloth as part of an economic empowerment program. A representative from the President’s office encouraged citizens to prioritize humility, work, and learning, emphasizing that national success depends on responsible participation from everyone.
