Ngaye Mékhé will be in the spotlight from December 22nd to January 2nd. During the traditional Festival of Culture, Art and Crafts of Kajoor (Ft Caak), it will be a moment to show the world the cultural heritage, arts and crafts of this city, located in the region of Thies, who needs this opening because "the development of Cayor can only go through that". "All the countries that have developed have gone through culture and this is possible for Ngaye in particular and for Senegal in general," says Dr Maguette Wade, Mayor of Ngaye, who calls for the return of cultural and artistic values. For example, China and India "have been able to rely on culture to be among the developed countries of today".
In any case, Ngaye has something to offer these festival-goers. There are 234 shoe factories in the city, in which more than 6,000 people work for more than 2,300 pairs of shoes per day. Not to mention the 12 trades that offer the Museum of Arts and a unit of bio treatment of skins (leather sector) with women tanners. The relocation of 80 towns and villages to the weekly market, the mining, phosphates and zircon mining in Diago by the Pme / Pmi, the establishment of banks and microfinance agencies make Mékhé an economic reservoir, according to the same source. What should make Ngaye a pole of economic development. Beyond the artisanal aspect, there will be shows promoting African culture, especially that of Cayor, games of spirit (wouré, yooté), carnival with all participants, cavalry (ceedo), culinary arts activities (traditional food such as lakh bissap), donations of blood, sports, among others.
