Effectively fighting malaria and dengue fever is the objective sought with MAÏA ointment. This ointment, made from shea butter, cottonseed oil, beeswax, according to Gérard Niyondiko, co-founder and general director of MAÏA Africa, allows, with 8 hours of protection, to moisturize the skin and at the same time to chase away mosquitoes.

The solution proposed by MAÏA to fight against malaria, according to Dr Robert Kargougou, Minister in charge of health, aims to provide Burkinabè families with a long-lasting anti-mosquito ointment in the long term. Dr Robert Kargougou, by calling on all Burkinabè and partners for greater synergy in this fight against malaria, recognized the merit of MAÏA ointment.

“The solution can come from home, from our community, from our ingenuity, and we have a duty to change our future. Together with the support of our partners we can build a stronger, more resilient, holier Burkina Faso where each and everyone, regardless of where they live, has access to a life without malaria, without dengue, without other transmitted diseases. by vectors »he indicated.

The launch of MAÏA anti-mosquito ointment was an opportunity for the company’s first managers to hand over 80,000 pots of ointment for the benefit of the Ministry of Health. “You should know that in internally displaced persons sites, malaria is the leading cause of consultation and hospitalization.

Currently we are at a recurrence of dengue, so making this gesture is just our solidarity to help protect those who do not have the means to buy it and that is why we went through the Ministry of Health because ‘he knows better the targets that need to be hit’, justified Gérard Niyondiko on the donation of jars of ointments to the ministry in charge of health. Also, the ointment can be purchased in food stores and shops from 900 CFA francs each.
