For the first time ever ❗️, an Olympic event is taking place on the African continent. Senegal, in West Africa, is currently hosting the Youth Olympic Games, in which around 2,700 young athletes are competing. Dakar, Saly and Diamniadio are the venues for the competitions.
Congratulations to all Senegalese people on the beautiful opening ceremony to the 2026 Dakar Youth Olympic Games #JOJ2026. It is a chef d’oeuvre of storytelling rooted in a united Senegalese and African culture unapologetically open to the world.View quoted post on X
Congratulations to the organizers, volunteers, the president of the olympic committee Mr Diagna Ndiaye and the creative director Madame Khady Niang, you will make everyone remember Alkebu-Lan.
I hope the organization of these games will give a glimpse to our elites of the shared benefits of a growth orientation, and to our people raise the standard of what they achieve.
Jarama!
