Thiès - Sad fate of a writer-poet abandoned on the street: The heartfelt cry of Amadou Lamine Sall

Writer-poet Boumy Faye was found living under a makeshift tent in the streets of Thiès, prompting his colleague Amadou Lamine Sall to make a heartfelt plea for solidarity on June 11, 2026. Amadou Lamine Sall proposes housing Boumy Faye either at the Senegalese Writers' Association premises in Point E or in a rented room in Thiès, and pledges to contribute financially. He also calls on the mayor of Thiès and the Minister of Culture to provide urgent assistance before the rainy season arrives.
