Burkina Faso / President Ibrahim Traoré: Committed to the well-being of his people

In a world where political leadership is often scrutinized, President Ibrahim Traoré stands out as a beacon of commitment to his people’s well-being. His recent decisions in the Cabinet meeting shed light on his governance philosophy, emphasizing the importance of public interest above all else.

During the meeting, President Traoré led the adoption of a bill aimed at revising the authorization process for privatizing publicly funded enterprises.

This bill, with a specific focus on the Ministry of Industrial Development, Trade, Handicrafts, and Small and Medium Enterprises, reflects Traoré’s dedication to ensuring that national resources benefit the populace directly.

One of the notable aspects of this decision is the exclusion of three key entities— the Burkinabe National Hydrocarbons Company (SONABHY), the Bureau of Mines and Geology of Burkina (BUMIGEB), and the Vehicle Control Center (CCVA)—from the privatization list.

By retaining control of these crucial sectors, President Traoré sends a clear message: the interests of Burkina Faso’s citizens are paramount.

The implications of these choices are significant. SONABHY plays a pivotal role in the country’s energy self-sufficiency, while BUMIGEB manages vital mineral resources responsibly.

The decision to keep these entities public underscores Traoré’s commitment to preserving national assets for the benefit of all Burkinabe.

Furthermore, the retention of CCVA under public ownership reflects the government’s proactive stance on issues like road safety and vehicle standards, directly impacting citizens’ daily lives.

In essence, President Ibrahim Traoré’s leadership is characterized by courageous decisions that prioritize the common good.

His actions exemplify a leadership style that is principled, forward-thinking, and dedicated to serving the interests of the people, elevating him as a role model for effective governance in challenging times.
