All the logistics were in motion: the asphalt paver, trucks filled with bitumen, tankers, compactors, among other equipment, with these enthusiastic men and women under the technical direction of Captain Ripper Ulrich Benin.

According to Commander Zoodnoma Ahmed SAKANDE, Coordinator of the Faso Mªbo Presidential Initiative: "This road has a right-of-way of 9 meters and we have a dynamic team at work. The work is progressing as we wish. We are sure of achieving the objectives set by the hierarchy, especially since the brave people have never stopped supporting us."
