Traoré’s Highway Project Advances: 230km of Ouaga–Bobo Road Cleared by Local Engineers

Описание: Traoré’s Highway Project Advances: 230km of Ouaga–Bobo Road Cleared by Local Engineers

Burkina Faso has taken a bold step toward true independence by building the Ouaga–Bobo highway using its own resources instead of foreign loans or grants.

Authorities confirm that more than 230 kilometers of road have already been cleared, marking a major milestone in one of the country’s largest infrastructure projects in decades.

Under the leadership of Captain Ibrahim Traoré, the government rejected over 1,032 billion CFA francs in foreign loan offers and chose to rely on local engineers, local equipment, and national funding through the Faso Mêbo initiative.

Drone footage from Tita-Baporo shows rapid progress as workers clear land and prepare the route for construction of a modern 4×2 lane highway connecting Ouagadougou to Bobo-Dioulasso.

This project is not just about roads — it is about sovereignty, jobs for young people, and proving that African nations can build their future with their own hands.
