Since December 2019 as part of the EMP-ABB's infrastructure improvement strategy, its Director of Studies, Colonel Eric Ponsot, French cooperant, identified needs in strengthening of the security system from school. The project, validated by General Facon during his visit on Wednesday March 11, 2020, thus enabled EMP-ABB to benefit from a concertina donation from the Barkhane Force.
The official handover ceremony took place on Thursday, January 28, 2021 at 10 a.m. in the EMP-ABB enclosure and recorded the participation of Lieutenant-Colonel Antoine de la Force Barkhane and representatives of the Director General of the EMP-ABB, Colonel Souleymane Sangaré.
The Director of Studies, on behalf of the Director General of the School of Peacekeeping Alioune Blondin Beye, warmly thanked Force Barkhane for this donation.
