Examiners involved in the organization of the Certificate of Primary Studies (CEP, 2024) in the South-West region have mobilized 5 million 272 thousand 500 FCFA for the peace effort.
At the initiative of the South-West regional directorate of preschool, primary and non-formal education, more than 2000 teachers, supervisors and administrative staff involved in the CEP and entry into 6th grade school exams of the session of 2024 have decided to donate part of their support to the Patriotic Support Fund (FSP).
In total, 5,272,500 FCFA were collected to support the Transition as part of the fight against terrorism.
After returning the sum to the treasury, the regional director of preschool, primary and non-formal education in the South-West, Jean Joseph Somda, came to present the supporting documents to the governor of the South-West, Boureima Savadogo.
The receipt for payment to the treasury was given on Wednesday June 26, 2024 to the Governor of the South-West, in the presence of the defense and security fo
rces.
According to Jean Joseph Somda, the initiative to contribute to the FSP started from the preparatory meeting for the exams in Diébougou, where the actors unanimously decided to make their contribution to the peace effort.
This is a voluntary contribution which takes into account all stakeholders involved in the CEP school exams, 2024 session, he maintained.
‘We are very satisfied, because at the start of the project, we planned to collect 3,000,000 CFA francs, but we collected more than 5,000,000 FCFA. Some even contributed beyond what was asked of them,’ rejoiced Mr. Somda, while specifying that the amount to contribute for category B agents was 2,000 FCFA and 5,000 F CFA for those of category A.
The governor of the region expressed his gratitude to the initiators for this mobilization of funds.
‘This is an opportunity to thank the initiators and all those who contributed voluntarily. This further demonstrates that we have men in Burkina Faso who think about the stability of their country,’ rejoic
ed Boureima Savadogo.
He took the opportunity to invite other layers of the region who have not yet reacted to follow the example of the regional directorate of preschool, primary and non-formal education in the South-West.
