Rollo is a small town of 7783 people and the capital of Rollo Department, Bam Province, Burkina Faso, West Africa.. The Départment of Rollo has 25,000 adults, and in 2007, as part of national political decentralisation, Issa Ouermi was elected mayor of the Rollo Department.
Rollo is reached by an unmade road, taking half an hour by motorbike or considerably longer in a vehicle, from the main N-S Kongoussi-Bourzanga road that links Ouagadougou to the north of the country. Past Rollo to the west are many villages, before the Province of Yatenga is entered – its capital Ouahigouya, is a couple of hours away by motorbike. This part of Burkina Faso is dominated by Mossi people, and the language spoken is overwhelmingly More with a smattering of French and Fulfulde.
The Mossi arrived in the region in the 14th century, and have co-mingled with the indigenous residents. There are also settlers from modern-day Mali, and animism coexists with Christianity and Islam. Life is still traditional in many ways, with mud brick housing predominating, although large towns like Kongoussi may be reached with minimal difficulty, permitting market trading, access to shops, the Kongoussi cinema, pharmacies, the hospital, etc. within 65 kilometres (40 mi).
