tripoint was not precisely fixed as of 1979
but is situated in the mekrou river at about
n lat 11d 54m 15s &
e long 2d 25m 10s
it was formerly a vague french colonial administrative
trijunction in a
remote wilderness area
no official instrument describes its situation very
clearly
tho it is depicted on maps at the end of a straight
line sector of the
niger burkina faso boundary
nor is there even any indication whether the tripoint
falls along the
thalweg or median line of the river
