0:00What if your future no longer depended
0:02on your parents 'salary but solely on
0:05your own merit? That is the bold bet
0:08Burkina Faso has just made by adopting
0:10a major reform of its university
0:12scholarship system. It is a historic
0:16decision that could well transform the
0:19lives of thousands of students in
0:21Burkina Faso, while also inspiring
0:24other African countries. Friends, if
0:27you haven't kept up, on June 25th, the
0:30Council of Ministers adopted new
0:32reforms regarding higher education
0:35scholarships. We are going to look at
0:37that right away because it is
0:38extraordinary. From now on, the main
0:41change is that parental income will no
0:44longer be a criteria for awarding
0:47scholarships as it was before, but even
0:50more interestingly, and this is truly
0:53great. The reform also introduces an
0:56absolutely important new development.
0:58Listen closely to this, guys. Every
1:02student wishing to pursue their studies
1:05abroad must obtain prior authorization
1:07from the Ministry of Higher Education
1:10because the goal here is to better
1:13organize departures. Let's go right
1:16away. Listen to the Minister of Higher
1:19Education reading the conclusions of
1:21this Council of Ministers adopting
1:23these historic reforms. I have never
1:25adopted in Burkina Faso. It is very
1:27interesting. Let's go.
1:28Priority. Thus, the main innovations
1:32that have been made in this decree are
1:35as follows. First, we have the
1:39redefinition and prioritization of
1:42scholarship award criteria, and from
1:44now on, the primary criterion will be
1:46reserved essentially for priority
1:49training fields. Next, there is of
1:52course the criterion of merit, and then
1:54the criterion of age. Now, it must be
1:57emphasized that at this stage, among
2:00the criteria, those relating to
2:02parental income have been removed
2:05because it was, after all, a criterion
2:07quite difficult to define. The other
2:10major innovation is the transfer of all
2:14aid to the level of the FONER. So, from
2:19now on, aid applications will be
2:21examined at the FONER level. Next,
2:26another innovation is that we also have
2:29the regulation of studies abroad. Now,
2:33it must be emphasized that from now on,
2:36any student, any Burkinabe who wants to
2:39pursue studies abroad and has received
2:42a scholarship is required to obtain
2:45prior authorization from the ministry
2:48in charge of higher education before
2:51beginning those studies abroad.
2:55Likewise, from now on, prior
2:57authorization from the ministry in
2:59charge of higher education will be
3:02required for any Burkinabe who wants to
3:04pursue studies in Burkina Faso but is
3:07benefiting from a scholarship from an
3:09international, inter-state, or other
3:12structure. Likewise, it is now
3:16recommended and even required that any
3:19Burkinabe student wishing to go abroad
3:22for their studies must first obtain
3:25prior authorization from the ministry
3:27in charge of higher education,
3:30regardless of the source of funding,
3:32including personal funding. So, what if
3:36they don't? Without obtaining these
3:40prior authorizations, the learner risks
3:43having the diploma, title, or degree
3:46obtained abroad not be recognized in
3:49Burkina Faso. For studies abroad, the
3:53prior opinion of the minister in charge
3:56of higher education must be requested
3:59so that we can have oversight of the
4:02content of the child's training.
4:06Because we have noticed that there are
4:08many children who leave the country but
4:11end up as social welfare cases abroad.
4:15Likewise, there are some abroad who
4:17start studies that are not in line with
4:19the government's current vision. And
4:23unfortunately, we have many situations
4:25involving social welfare cases that we
4:27are recording more and more. So, it
4:31became important for the government to
4:34ensure that every Burkinabe who goes
4:37abroad for studies has the ministry's
4:40approval and also aligns with the
4:42government's vision for training
4:45programs. It is also important for the
4:49government to track all these learners
4:52going abroad, primarily to ensure that
4:55the fields these children are pursuing
4:58meet the government's priorities. But
5:02this also allows the government to
5:04register every Burkinabe learner
5:06located abroad, and above all, to be
5:09able to prepare for their return to
5:11contribute to socio-economic
5:13development. So we no longer want to
5:17witness these difficult situations
5:19where parents send their children
5:21abroad without the government being
5:23aware, only for these children to
5:24return later as social welfare cases or
5:27be insufficiently prepared to be
5:28welcomed back into the country. So it
5:32is to manage all this that we insisted
5:35on setting up this monitoring system.
5:38This is not aimed at blocking anyone,
5:41but we want to ensure that all those
5:43who leave do so legally and pursue
5:45studies that fit within the logic and
5:47vision of the government, and that the
5:49country is prepared to welcome them
5:51back.
5:52It's magnificent. It's magnificent,
5:54guys. It's extraordinary. Let's go!
6:08Welcome to Massora Business. If you are
6:10discovering me in this video, my name
6:11is Aniel. I am a software engineer and
6:14also an entrepreneur, promoter of the
6:16company Africa Food Industries. Our
6:19goal is to produce fish on a massive
6:22scale, to address the critical fish
6:25deficit in our countries, because a
6:28country like Cameroon imports about
6:302,900 tons of fish every year. It is
6:34absolutely absurd. And so we are here,
6:38we have set ourselves the goal, the
6:40mission, to help bridge this deficit at
6:42our own small level, because our
6:45countries absolutely need to practice
6:47aquaculture and fish farming, as we
6:49cannot depend on other countries or
6:52other people to eat. Because if you
6:55depend on them, it is inevitably those
6:58others who will dictate how you behave.
7:02If these are topics that interest you
7:03and you also want to join, you want to
7:05join the great Africa Food Industry
7:07family to perhaps contribute in your
7:08own way or become a shareholder with us
7:10. I will say it again: all those who
7:14come to be shareholders with us, you go
7:16through, you go through a vetting
7:18process, but you still go through a
7:20fairly thorough interview so that we
7:22can ensure you are aligned with our
7:24goal and what you are also bringing to
7:26the table besides your financial
7:28investment. Money, because today, as we
7:31will see in this video, we need
7:33knowledge, we need well-trained minds.
7:36And this is where guys won't agree with
7:38me, because I am going to fire live
7:40rounds again at all those who come
7:42around saying that, really, academic
7:45studies and all that are useless. I
7:47stand by it again. So guys, share this
7:49video massively because it’s going to
7:50be very interesting. So, look today: a
7:53country like Burkina Faso has decided,
7:56because its educational system, the
7:58scholarships awarded to students who go
8:00abroad like me—when I recall a few
8:03years ago, I left my native Cameroon to
8:05come to France to study. And we all did
8:09that, we all did the same thing. Many
8:11people are in my situation; we went
8:12through Campus France, we had
8:14interviews. Ten years ago, I still
8:16remember, guys, be honest, Cameroonians
8:17and in all countries where there is
8:19Campus France, when you have your
8:21interview, what did you say at the
8:22start? I said I wanted to go study
8:24engineering in the medical field at the
8:26time, to return afterward and develop
8:27my country, all the things we used to
8:29say. But we thought at the time, we
8:32said that just because we wanted to get
8:33the visa and go abroad. But I really
8:36thought, and today, I mean when I look
8:38back, as if by magic, as if by
8:40enchantment, I am fulfilling that
8:41promise I made back then. Today, the
8:44Burkinabe government realizes that in
8:46their country, there are people—well,
8:48you have to know that the criteria for
8:50scholarships, as the Bible says, used
8:51to be based on parents' income. It was
8:54completely unequal. That means that
8:56children whose parents didn't have high
8:58enough incomes couldn't benefit, their
9:00children wouldn't get a scholarship. So
9:03, the Burkinabe government wanted to
9:04change all that. Now, the primary
9:07criterion to get a scholarship is that
9:09you must be in a field that the country
9:11needs. You must be in a field of study
9:13that the country needs. As I told you,
9:16President Capitaine announced it, he
9:18built and developed the Technological
9:20Academy of Faso with programs like
9:21aeronautics, nuclear chemistry, and so
9:23on. So for all of this, we will need
9:27doctors, engineers, teachers to train
9:29the youth of tomorrow, and we won't be
9:31able to do that with people studying
9:33psychology, history, modern languages,
9:35or literature—I don't know, you're
9:37learning literature better than the
9:39people who even invented it. But I went
9:42and watched this video as well on a
9:44TikTok account. I looked at the
9:46comments below the videos. People
9:47didn't understand, wondering why, for
9:49example, this second new innovation
9:51they are introducing today. Every
9:54Burkinabe student who wants to go study
9:56abroad, whether with their own funds, a
9:59state scholarship, or even a foreign
10:01scholarship, must obtain—get this—
10:03prior authorization from the Ministry
10:06of Higher Education of Faso to go
10:08abroad. And I saw comments saying: "No,
10:11but really, it's our own money, how can
10:12the government authorize..." But you
10:14haven't understood, guys, you haven't
10:15understood. Because when they make
10:18these decisions today, it's because
10:20they've realized there are many
10:21Burkinabe students—and here I mean
10:23African students in general—who are
10:24abroad, studying things that have
10:26nothing to do with the continent,
10:27nothing to do with development,
10:29pursuing studies that bring absolutely
10:30nothing to the table. And the way today
10:34the land of upright men is changing,
10:36because it needs, the country needs to
10:39train engineers, needs to train
10:41computer scientists, needs to master
10:43technologies, tech, to develop its
10:45country. country. And when you compare
10:48that a little with Chinese or
10:50Singaporean students, even here in
10:51France, when they come to study, once
10:53they finish their studies, they quickly
10:55return to their country. No one stays
10:57here because they know they have to go
10:59and develop their country. It's a
11:01sentiment, I'd say, it's even a
11:03national obligation, a sense of
11:05patriotism. And I think that the BF,
11:07the Burkina Faso is on the right track.
11:09Guys, tell me in the comments what you
11:11think about this law. It's interesting
11:13because today, when they tell you that
11:15they themselves say there are students
11:17who go to study things that have
11:19nothing to do with the current vision
11:21of the president captain, who is
11:23absolutely resolved to food sovereignty
11:25. We are going to need people to do
11:28modern agriculture, guys. Not just with
11:30water and soil, but modern agriculture
11:33with tech. Last time we saw Dounia
11:35Browser. By the way, for information
11:37guys, for information, I forgot to give
11:38you this at the beginning. Dounia
11:40Browser will soon be available on the
11:42Play Store. Stay tuned, it's all
11:46extraordinary. We must download the
11:49application massively, and the iOS
11:52version will arrive very soon. We are
11:54working on it. I told you, when I talk
11:55about a subject, I go all the way. So
11:58there is Dounia Browser, we have
11:59machines, I showed you that, electric
12:01washing machines. We showed you that,
12:04sweepers too that run on solar power.
12:08You saw that, drones too, you saw those
12:10two young people who are developing
12:12space rockets. So Burkina Faso needs
12:15people who master technology, who
12:17master, I don't know, chemistry,
12:19because today the country is at war.
12:22You have to know how to manufacture
12:23weapons too, you have to know how to
12:24manufacture drones. You have to know
12:27how to master even the mineral
12:28resources of its subsoil, transform all
12:30that, and it's not with people who
12:31study history or psychology that the
12:33country will do it, guys. I am sorry.
12:36Big up, big up, President Captain. I
12:39salute these decisions. If I were...
12:41honestly, I would have to obtain my
12:43authorization to go study abroad.
12:46Because, when you come to study abroad,
12:48imagine the position today of a student
12:51who has obtained authorization to go
12:53study outside of their country, Burkina
12:55Faso. When they arrive abroad, they
12:57aren't studying like someone who
12:59doesn't know if they will return. They
13:01know absolutely that they are coming to
13:03pursue studies that are in direct line
13:05with their country's vision for
13:07development. When they finish their
13:10studies, they arrive in the country and
13:12are immediately operational. And we
13:15told you that if you don't get
13:16authorization from the Ministry of
13:19Higher Education, when you return to
13:21the country, well, you aren't
13:23guaranteed work, or you stay abroad,
13:25and there you go, you won't have
13:28enjoyed the right to be able to develop
13:30and contribute to developing your
13:32country, guys. So try to look at it
13:35again; it's truly extraordinary. So,
13:37Burkina, really, open all of this up
13:39even to people who are outside of
13:41Africa, because we want to come and
13:42contribute, even for free. I say for
13:44free, in your technological academy of
13:46Burkina. I would really like to
13:48contribute to it, to bring my modest
13:50contribution from a distance, because
13:52today, the country really needs all its
13:54children, all the daughters and sons of
13:56Africa, to even come and give courses
13:58for free. We need technology, people,
14:01men and women who are well-trained and
14:04capable, because beyond mineral
14:06resources, beyond the subsoil, beyond
14:08all that, you need well-trained men and
14:11women to be able to transform those
14:13resources you have in the subsoil into
14:16technology and other things. That is
14:19what others do, and that is why we are
14:21still last today, because we only
14:22consume; we have never thought about
14:24transforming iron, for example. We have
14:27never thought about transforming our
14:29cobalt, even though others use it every
14:31day to earn hundreds of billions of
14:33dollars globally. Guys, this is an
14:35extraordinary lesson for Africa because
14:37Africa today continues to send young
14:39people abroad. When I see how visas are
14:42granted, we continue to send all our
14:43youth abroad today without any
14:45oversight. Almost no country monitors
14:47the young people they send to study
14:49abroad. We don't even know what they
14:51are studying. We don't even know what
14:53they are doing abroad. And when they
14:55come back, you don't even know. You
14:57have no control over what they studied
14:58or what they will come to do upon
15:00returning to the country. So frankly
15:03guys, share this video because this is
15:05a decision that must also inspire other
15:07African countries and even inspire us
15:09ourselves. See you very soon, and above
15:11all, take care of yourselves. Your
15:13wounds.
15:24Good evening everyone. I am Y who is
