The Peulhs are very angry with the country's authorities after the ban on their peaceful march in solidarity following the massacres of their Fulani relatives in Mali.

"We regretfully denounce the ban on this march, we do not understand the attitude of the Senegalese authorities. As a matter of principle, we seized the prefect of Dakar to organize this march and he gave us his consent. He even proposed to change the route, passing through the Obelisk Square instead of taking the Ucad Rectorate to the Embassy of Mali. But at the last minute, the prefect reminded us to tell us that walking is strictly prohibited. We are completely disoriented because we did not intend to use violence or perpetuate a coup. On the contrary, we just wanted to denounce the massacres taking place in Mali. We do not understand the silence of Senegal faced with this situation, "said Ballé KA, in the columns of the daily As, traveled by Senegal7.
Continuing, one of the initiators of the forbidden march denounces the silence of the authorities in front of what he calls genocide. "I bow to the memory of the martyrs in Mali, widows and orphans. For three months, Professor Abdoulaye BATHILY had warned about the risk of genocide of the Fulbe in Mali. Unfortunately, public authorities, international organizations and ECOWAS have not responded. It took the discovery of mass graves after waves of violence orchestrated by the Malian Government against the Fulbe. That's why we wanted to keep this step. It was even expected that President Macky SALL would make a statement calling for a halt to the genocide. But so far, we have heard no statement from the public or religious authorities of Senegal, "he lamented.
