In the presence of several members of the government, deputies and mayors, the Yitté Senegal movement, led by its president Amadou Gueye, celebrated this weekend the success of 1,650 young people trained in promising sectors such as paving, topography, driving, or even sales techniques.
Among the present personalities were the Minister of Labor, Employment and Relations with Institutions, Mr. Abass Fall; The Minister of Microfinance, the Social and Solidarity Economy, Mr. Alioune Dione; Minister-advisor and presidency spokesperson, Mr. Ousseynou Ly; The mayor of Pikine West, Sheikh Diop; The mayor of Diamaguène Sicap Mbao; as well as MP Babacar Ndiaye, surrounded by several senior officials and cabinet directors.
In his speech, Minister Abass Fall welcomed the “NDAW Dou tok” initiative, carried by Amadou Gueye, and stressed the importance of technical and professional training as a lever to combat unemployment and promotion vector for entrepreneurship. He encouraged the duplication of this model across the country, believing that Amadou Gueye’s commitment, without prior support from the State, constitutes an inspiring example.
For his part, Minister Alioune Dione insisted on the need to structure young people formed through solidarity productive cooperatives (CPS), allowing sustainable and autonomous integration on the labor market. He spoke of these CPS as concrete after-training solutions.
Minister Ousseynou Ly also expressed his support for the Yitté Senegal movement, recalling that this same training model was recently launched in the medina. He is committed to strengthening collaboration between the presidency digital unit and citizen initiatives of this type.
President Amadou Gueye has reaffirmed his ambition to expand this dynamic through the national territory by launching the Yitté Senegal caravan – Yombey Senegalese Yi, Rawatina Liguey Ndaw GNI, an initiative supported by the Minister of Labor.
During the ceremony, several trained young people presented their achievements to the authorities. One of the most striking examples remains the paving of the parking lot of the Léopold Sédar Senghor cultural complex in Pikine, entirely carried out as part of the program-school of the program.
