The severely deteriorated condition of the Bignona-Diouloulou-Kafountine road, located in the Bignona department, has prompted action from truck drivers in the area. Through their association, they have decided to undertake repairs or temporary maintenance work on this crucial road, vital to this large and sprawling department in the Ziguinchor region.

The president of the group of heavy goods vehicle operators in the department of Bignona is calling for the mobilization of all populations along this route, for the success of this civic action.

Carlos Diatta believes that this action, in addition to significantly improving traffic flow, can save lives. He cites as evidence the number of deaths recorded during evacuations. According to him, the advanced state of disrepair of this road makes medical evacuations to Bignona and/or Ziguinchor difficult and arduous.

The president of the trucking association in the Bignona department believes that the temporary repair of this road also addresses economic imperatives. For Carlos Diatta, the Bignona-Diouloulou-Kafountine road is the economic lifeblood of the department.

He calls for everyone's commitment, especially for a clear support in order to transport to the site the various elements necessary for these road repair works.

Carlos Diatta and his team are also seeking the support of all elected officials and authorities in the department to ensure that the two days of work are completed on schedule, particularly this Saturday and Sunday.
