Keur Mbaye Fall : La jeunesse monte au créneau pour protéger le terrain Jumenga

Tensions are rising in Keur Mbaye Fall. The neighborhood's youth, supported by those from Toll Diaz, have decided to stand up against any attempt to take over the Jumenga land, which they consider a collective heritage and a vital space for community and sporting activities. These young people organized a massive mobilization to reaffirm their attachment to this site and their determination to protect it.

"We will not stand by while they try to deprive us of what belongs to the community," said a representative of ASC Jumenga, to applause from the protesters.

Organizers announced the establishment of a permanent citizen monitoring committee on the site to prevent any attempts to privatize or divert the site's use. Meanwhile, the youth are planning peaceful mobilizations, including rallies, demonstrations, and petitions, until the site is permanently secured.

"Any attempt at land grabbing will be fought by all legal and civic means at our disposal," warn the young people of Keur Mbaye Fall and Toll Diaz, who are calling on local authorities to take responsibility for preserving social peace.

    cette bande de terre pouvait accueillir beaucoup d'infrastructures de cette partie enclavée de la commune de mbao mais au sénégal tout est apparemment devenu question de morceller des terrains et de les vendre...y a des maisons partout et peu d'infrastructures visant à faciliter la vie et la survie des populations.

    Il est temps de reprendre la main sur Front de terre jusqu'au rond-point liberté 6. C'est du n'importe quoi là-bas. Honteux et affreux
