Burkina Faso: Patriotic immersion in Sourou, governor calls for vigilance against fake news

Mandatory patriotic immersion, this presidential initiative continues to make steady progress in Burkina Faso. In Boucle du Mouhoun, high school graduates from Sourou who are participating in this adventure, designed to turn them into model, disciplined citizens, are being encouraged by the authorities to cultivate a spirit of discernment in the face of fake news.
Governor Babo Pierre Bassinga’s visit to the new high school graduates participating in patriotic immersion in Sourou is part of a political communication strategy aimed at strengthening confidence in this presidential initiative.
By congratulating the students on their success in the baccalaureate, the governor is highlighting the commitment of young people while reminding them of the importance of discipline and vigilance in the face of false information circulating on social media.
This statement comes at a time when certain publications have attempted to tarnish the programme’s image.
By stating that mobile phones are prohibited on site, the governor seeks to reassure public opinion and preserve the credibility of the patriotic immersion programme.
His visit, accompanied by education officials, demonstrates a commitment to rigorous monitoring and transparency in the implementation of this initiative.
The governor’s actions convey a clear political message: defending the values of patriotism, guiding young people and ensuring the smooth running of government programmes.
This type of visit helps to strengthen the bond between the Burkina Faso authorities and citizens, while reinforcing the image of a caring and committed state.
