In recent news, Sadio Mane, the Senegalese football star, received a warm welcome from fellow students as his new wife, Aisha Tamba, returned to school after their marriage last weekend. The private ceremony took place in Dakar, Senegal on Sunday, January 7, just days before the upcoming 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Ivory Coast on January 13.
A video shared by Senenews, a Senegalese media platform, showcased the heartwarming scene as hundreds of students gathered at the school grounds, singing in their native Senegal language to celebrate the return of Aisha Tamba, who is also a student.
