The National Committee for Emergency Relief and Rehabilitation (CONASUR) as well as CSOs in the province and the NGO Terre des Hommes came to the aid of internally displaced persons in Solenzo, through a donation of 220 tons of food consisting of sorghum and rice, informs the Burkina Information Agency.
Several hundred people from the displaced people of the different villages of the province stormed the service. The High Commissioner of the province of Banwa Oumarou Sandwidi, president of COPROSUR, as well as certain members of the committee and also the various directors and heads of provincial services witnessed this donation.
Oumarou Sandwidi, welcoming the presence of the population, affirmed the government’s unwavering support for the internally displaced.
« The government is aware of the suffering of internally displaced persons and this is why CONASUR alone gave 200 tons of food to support you. CSOs and also Terre des Hommes donated nearly 20 tons of food to show their support.
More than 3800 people will benefit but know that those who do not have today will have some in the days or months to come. “, added Oumarou Sandwidi, in the lines of the AIB. Thus the sharing is done according to the size of the household and the households received between 25 kg and 150 kg of food.
“We don’t have a field and with this month of August I was wondering how to live in Solenzo. The food problem is difficult. Really we tell the High Commissioner to salute the leaders of the country because it’s like they know what we are going through. I had two bags and that can do a lot for my family,” said an internally displaced person who requested anonymity. With a smile on their face, each beneficiary hastened to join the family.
