Amadou Ba rend hommage à Abdou Aziz Mbaye : Une grande figure de la tradition orale s’en est allée

Senegal mourns the passing of Abdou Aziz Mbaye, president of the Association of Traditional Communicators of Senegal. A true pillar of oral tradition, he leaves behind an invaluable cultural and spiritual legacy.

Amadou Ba paid tribute to the memory of a man of commitment, rigor, and his word. "Senegal has lost a great figure in its oral tradition, with the passing of Abdou Aziz Mbaye, president of the Association of Traditional Communicators of Senegal. I knew a man of rigor, who served with dedication as an agent of economic control before devoting himself fully to speech, culture, and the transmission of our values. Through his eloquence, wisdom, and constant commitment, he embodied the right word and the faithful transmission of our cultural values. His voice, a symbol of collective memory, helped preserve the identity and spiritual richness of our nation. To his family, his loved ones, traditional communicators, and the entire cultural world, I offer my most sincere condolences. May paradise be his eternal home, and may his legacy continue to enlighten future generations."

Abdou Aziz Mbaye was known for his unwavering commitment to preserving Senegal's intangible heritage. Through his voice, wisdom, and deep understanding of traditions, he influenced several generations of traditional communicators.
