The government of Burkina Faso has found two members of the technical and electronic correction commission for the Enaref C 2026 exam guilty of negligence. Abdoul-Kader Traoré and Omer Sango were sanctioned for their roles in an incident that occurred during the announcement of exam results. According to the Council of Ministers' report on November 5, 2026, their negligence raised doubts about the neutrality of the public service in organizing the exam.

The incident involved the proclamation of results for the former National School of Financial Regulations (ENAREF) and student managers of health services, session 2026. The Minister of Public Servants made two oral communications to the Council of Ministers on November 5, 2026, including one on the disciplinary procedure against Traoré and Sango. An investigation revealed that Omer Sango, a member of the electronic correction commission, had access to scanned copies and was responsible for verifying them before transmitting the data.

The council found Abdoul-Kader Traoré, president of the technical and electronic correction commission, responsible for the team's actions under his supervision. Both Traoré and Sango were found guilty of negligence and sanctioned accordingly. Traoré received a four-level demotion, while Sango received a two-level demotion. Additionally, both individuals are prohibited from participating in any exam operations for a period of five years.

The Council of Ministers' report, presented by the Minister of Public Servants, highlighted the importance of maintaining the neutrality and integrity of public services. The incident raised concerns about the exam process, and the sanctions aim to prevent similar incidents in the future. The government emphasized its commitment to ensuring the credibility of public services.

The Enaref C 2026 exam is a critical process for recruiting students for various programs, including the IFPB (formerly ENAREF) and health services management. The incident and subsequent sanctions have brought attention to the need for vigilance and accountability in the exam process. The government's actions demonstrate its efforts to maintain public trust.

Captain Ibrahim Traoré, head of the Revolutionary People's Progressive Regime (RPP), presided over the Council of Ministers meeting. The government continues to prioritize transparency and accountability in its operations. The sanctions imposed on Traoré and Sango reflect the government's commitment to upholding the integrity of public services.
