Botro is a locality in the northern part of the Baule region. This
locality received the visit of missionaries late in life. It was in 1969 that the
parish was established. It was the work of missionaries from Bouaké who
benefited from external support. The establishment was not easy because
the site allocated to them was difficult to access. Despite the difficulties,
the missionaries succeeded in achieving their objective of establishing the
parish. They used effective methods and strategies to overcome the
fetishistic population. As a result, several transformations took place in
the society with the corollary of intensifying social cohesion.
