Burkina Faso: President Ibrahim Traoré, a leader committed to the progress of his people
The Managing Director of the Agency for the Promotion of Community Entrepreneurship (APEC), Karim Traoré, recently highlighted the community entrepreneurship programme through popular shareholding, an initiative spearheaded by the President of the Burkinabe Revolution, Captain Ibrahim Traoré. In an interview with RTB on Sunday 3 September 2023, Karim Traoré shared details of this ambitious initiative.
On 12 June this year, the President of the Burkinabe Revolution, Captain Ibrahim Traoré, launched this innovative programme. Barely two months after its launch, tangible progress is already visible on the ground. In this interview with RTB, Mr Karim Traoré was keen to highlight President Traoré’s efforts for the well-being of his people.
First of all, Mr Karim Traoré enlightened the audience on the steps and mechanisms of the programme, highlighting the President’s vision for the future of the Burkinabe nation. He stressed that the programme was not simply a source of immediate monthly income, but a long-term investment. We want people to understand that it’s not about investing 100,000 francs today and expecting immediate returns in January (President Ibrahim Traoré has a long-term vision for the development of our nation).
Mr Karim Traoré then conveyed Captain Ibrahim Traoré’s commitment to transparency and fairness in the management of programme funds. He explained: «Today, anyone wishing to follow the traceability of funds, from their initial collection to the creation of companies, can do so. President Traoré has made it a point of honour for Burkinabe to be able to see directly on the ground the positive results of their financial contributions to promoting grassroots entrepreneurship».
Captain Ibrahim Traoré’s unwavering commitment to this initiative demonstrates his desire to move Burkina Faso forward and give its citizens the means to build a better future. The community entrepreneurship programme through popular shareholding highlights his sincere concern for the development of his people and the prosperity of the Burkinabe nation.
