Fortes pluies à Dakar : La vitrine artisanale du Canal 4 ravagée par les intempéries
Heavy rains on Thursday, August 20th, hit Dakar hard. At Canal 4 in Fass, a showcase for local crafts, gusts of wind and floodwaters swept away furniture. Some pieces ended up in the canal.

Bedrooms, wardrobes, living rooms, and beds, painstakingly carved from wood by Senegalese artisans, now lie damaged along the canal. For the artisans, it's more than just a material loss: it's the culmination of weeks of work and their hopes of selling their wares that have crumbled.
Faced with the disaster, resignation prevails. "We put our trust in the Lord," several dejected artisans confided.
The Minister of Handicrafts, Alpha Thiam, went to the site to show his solidarity and to hear their grievances.
