Ngano, in the northeast of Senegal, is the original village of Kalidou Koulibaly’s parents. Here they met and married, before emigrating to France.
A dream, a promise: the activities of Capitaine di Coeur were to start from there, from this land near the border with Mauritania.
Today, Kalidou laid the foundation stone for the construction of a children’s hospital in the heart of Ngano, a few meters from the clay house where his father was born and raised.
The ceremony was attended by institutions, local authorities and especially many people from Fouta who lovingly welcomed Kalidou, its most famous son.
