The rarahara came to stawi
It's an expression that many know from Fatima Younoussa, known under the pseudonym Zaza ména. Originally from Chiconi, she played off her kibushiphone accent, and the fact of not mastering shimaoré and that's what made her funny. Zaza Mena often made videos with local actors like Bombon Lada, Kanga M, she also played a role in the series “Combo” which was broadcast on Mayotte La 1ere.
Attached to our traditions, she knew how to make her voice heard on the antennas of Mayotte la 1ère or elsewhere, sharing with passion and commitment the riches of our heritage. Present in cultural and craft events, she often uttered her favorite expression which made her famous. But she mainly used it to advertise her products based on ingredients from Mayotte. Like msindzano, scrub for the face or even for the body.

As well as political figures, local artists, actors and the entire Mahorese population are affected by the sad news.
