Korhogo: Factory Dumps Untreated Wastewater in the Streets, Residents Complain of Strong Odors

In Korhogo’s CIDT Extension neighborhood, dark wastewater accompanied by strong odors was dumped into the streets. An emergency mission by CIAPOL, carried out by staff under regional office head Colonel Ehouman Wouré, traced the untreated industrial discharge to COTRAF SA. CIAPOL called for the wastewater to be collected and treated, affected areas to be cleaned, and the discharged water to be analyzed. Sanctions may follow over alleged violations of the Environmental Code.
