Kolda : Un élève de 6e poignardé à mort pour un pot de lait

Thierno Ibrahima Kanté, known as "Thier," aged 13, was killed by a classmate following an argument over a container of milk. The victim was a student in the 6th grade at CEM Kolda 2 in the Kolda district.

After passing the entrance exam for 6th grade in 2024 at the Doumassou elementary school, his home neighborhood, Thierno Ibrahima Kanté was assigned to Kolda 2 Middle School in 2025. However, having failed to achieve the required average , he repeated 6th grade. This year , Thierno Ibrahima Kanté achieved an annual average of 11/20 and was admitted to the next grade. Unfortunately, the school career of this student, who was also a footballer, came to a tragic end. The events date back to Sunday night, when he was dancing the "diambadong" with the residents of the Doumassou neighborhood.

His killer was a classmate with whom he had won a football match, receiving a can of condensed milk as a trophy. An argument broke out over the trophy, during which his classmate stabbed him with a knife. The suspected murderer was reported and arrested by officers from the central police station.

A violent death that plunges CEM2 into sadness at this time of mock exams for candidates for the Brevet de fin d'études moyennes (BFEM).

    Paix à son âme. Pauvreté baakhoul, des gens qui tuent juste d'autres pour le manger.
