Capitaine Traoré : Le témoignage de son ancien professeur après avoir reçu ce gros cadeau

Last Friday, August 22, Burkina Faso celebrated National Academic Excellence Day. On this occasion, Adama Zallé, a certified physical science teacher at the Bobo-Dioulasso National Scientific High School, was named Super Teacher of the Year. He received a score of 162.5/180 in the national assessment.

A check for 5 million FCFA, a villa...

To reward his rigor and commitment to Burkinabe national education, the state presented him with a villa, a check for 5 million CFA francs, and a trophy. He also received a letter of congratulations signed by Captain Traoré, who was his student. The leader made sure to mention him during the ceremony, which deeply moved the teacher.

"I thank the authorities for this distinction. It is a call to do more, because among thousands of teachers, when you are designated as the best teacher, then it is a call to persevere, to remain constant in order to do more... When the (president) himself acknowledged that I was his former teacher, well, I was truly moved," said Adama Zallé.

“The President of Faso was one of my best students.”

He adds: "I always remembered when we were in class, really, I'm lost for words. The President of Faso was one of my best students."

The "super-teacher" has a 41-year career. He was already inducted into the Order of the Stallion in 2023 after the release of his textbook. Last Friday, he was made a Knight of the Order of Academic Palms.

    Le capitaine Ibrahima Traoré a toujours été un cancre à l'école. Dans sa tête que des biceps.
