In Senegal, the future of a humanity that trembles at its direction begins. In Senegal, the future of a continent which has carried Man, familiarized itself with the stars, and which for this reason has been persecuted for a long time is more particularly committed.

I have the honor to have been chosen by a man whom a people has chosen to accompany it, and alongside my brothers and sisters who struggle, to move forward on a common path In Senegal my future begins , since you decided to have me arrested there, meaning to the whole world that I was wanted.
