Senegal’s top opposition leader, Ousmane Sonko, was released from jail late Thursday ahead of the country’s presidential election scheduled for March 24, his lawyer said. Sonko and his key ally, Bassirou Diomaye Faye, were both set free, his lawyer Bamba Cisse told The Associated Press. Supporters gathered at Sonko’s house and at other locations in the capital Dakar to celebrate his release. Drivers tooted their horns in celebration.

Jeune sénégalaise, Kiné est une « disquette », une jeune femme vivant à la mode parisienne (vêtements, chaussures, accessoires etc.). Lorsqu’elle découvre que son jeune époux se détourne peu à peu d’elle au profit des femmes sénégalaises traditionnelles, elle décide d’entreprendre un voyage initiatique au pays d’Aïda Souka, une "Drianké" (femme experte dans l'art de la séduction). Ce voyage nous invite à la découverte des artifices, parfums, stratégies et autres bijoux qu’utilisent les femmes Sénégalaises pour captiver leurs hommes.

#Wolof #Senegal #Gambia
Tall, dark, and striking, Wolof people are believed to be the tallest ethnic group in West Africa. Most of them are 6 feet tall and also very dark. They are the giants of West Africa.
The West African Wolof people are the largest ethnic group in Senegal, particularly concentrated in its northwestern region near the Senegal River and the Gambia River. In the Gambia, about 16% of the population is Wolof. In Mauritania, about 8% of the population is Wolof. Their total population exceeds 6 million in the three countries and they are 90 % Muslim.
On average, the Wolof people are 6 feet tall for the men and around 5 feet 7 feet for the women. This is one of the reasons why Senegal has one of the best basketball teams in Africa.
This is just my hypothesis but I believe the reason why they are so tall is that they may be descended from proto- Nilotic people who lived around the Nile Valley, which is in modern-day South Sudan. Their skin complexion is very dark, almost similar to the Dinka and Nuer, who are the world's tallest people.
They speak The Wolof language which belongs to the Senegambian branch of the Niger-Congo language family. Unlike most other languages of the Niger-Congo family, Wolof is not a tonal language.
The Wolof first entered Senegal from the northeast in about the 11th Century coming to the lower Senegal Valley. They are said to be composed of an amalgam of Mandingo, Sereer, and Fula. Cheikh Anta Diop believes that they came from the Nile valley and that the Wolof were part of the formation of the ancient Egyptian civilization.
Wolof people are often seen in colourful fabrics and patterns with the traditional boubou the garment of choice for both men and women. Variants are worn on a day-to-day with the whole shebang coming out on special occasions; the most important for the Wolof is the feast of Tabaski (the Muslim Feast of Sacrifice.
The Wolof, particularly the women, are known as being very beautiful. They dress fashionably and wear sophisticated hairstyles. They are often the fashion-setters for others around them. While many of the Wolof have settled in cities and worked as merchants, teachers, or government officials, most of them still live in rural areas and work as peasant farmers.
Traditionally the Wolof were divided into three classes: the freeborn, those born into slavery, and the artisans. The freeborn class ranged from high-ranking noblemen to common peasant farmers. The slave class was made up of the Wolofs whose parents were slaves. They were born into slavery and continued to serve their parent's masters. Finally, the artisans were considered a low class in Wolof society. This group included blacksmiths, leather workers, and musicians. Intermarriage among the three classes was a very rare occurrence.

However much of this class distinction is disappearing among the Wolof. For example, former president Abdou Diouf of Senegal was actually from the blacksmith class.
Hundreds of years ago, the Wolof conquered many tribes in the northwestern Senegal area. By the end of the 1300s, the Wolof had grown into a large empire of separate, self-governing states. By the 1500s, the empire had split into five major Wolof kingdoms which included Waalo, Kayor, Baol, Sine, and the Kingdom of Saloum.

Bété Bété raconte l’histoire de familles profondément marquées par les legs du sang. Respectivement Guéér et Teug, Alkali Sall et Makhoudia Tall sont amis intimes de longue date. Une amitié à l'épreuve des préjugés...
Certaines considérations autour des castes rendent impossible des amours à l’instar de l’idylle de jeunesse entre Alkali et Daba Thiam. Diouma, fille non reconnue par Alkali, est née de cette relation. Suite à cela, Ndiaga Thiam, père très conservateur de Daba, nourrit une colère viscérale vis à vis d’Alkali.
Tenant à sa lignée, Marème Sall, épouse d'Alkali refuse de se familiariser avec les Gnégnos. De son côté, Makhoudia Tall doit gérer un ménage polygame avec deux épouses respectivement Teug et Guéweul. Ainsi donc, la série Bété-Bété parait comme un reflet de la société sénégalaise sous ses diverses coutures.
