BURKINA FASO PRESIDENT, IBRAHIM TRAORE, TURNS DOWN SAUDI ARABIA’S OFFER TO BUILD 200 MOSQUES IN BURKINA FASO AND ASKS SAUDI ARABIA TO HELP BUILD SCHOOLS & HOSPITALS IN BURKINA FASO.
Burkina Faso’s President, Ibrahim Traore, has declined an offer from Saudi Arabia to build 200 mosques in his country. Instead, Traore suggested that Saudi Arabia invest in schools, hospitals, or businesses that would create jobs for the Burkinabe people ¹.
Traore reasons that Burkina Faso already has many empty mosques, and what the country really needs is development and progress. He emphasized that his country has suffered a lot and needs to move forward and regain its independence in all aspects.
This decision reflects Traore’s vision for Burkina Faso’s development, which prioritizes education, healthcare, and economic growth. Under his leadership, the country is shifting its focus towards sustainable development and inclusive governance
