Starting in 1974 at the law school of Cheikh Anta Diop University in Dakar, in an overcrowded amphitheater, I told myself I would never have success in legal studies. But persistence in my efforts permitted me to become a woman. I am the first Senegalese woman who, after the State doctorate in Law at the University of Paris 2 Pantheon Sorbonne, succeeded in the competition for aggregation in legal and political science of the African and Malagasy Council for Higher Education (CAMES). I am a Professeur de Classe Exceptionnelle (Professor of Exceptional class), and I capitalize on 40 years of university career during which I have trained generations of students and senior executives from Senegal, Africa and elsewhere. Leader of the party Car Leneen and initiator in Senegal of the third political party, I am the first Senegalese woman candidate for the Presidential election in my country. I have served as Advisor to the President of the Republic of Senegal. A legal profession can lead to anything. Women are natural leaders. They are the backbone of families and society. They are therefore useful. Their leadership must be valued by knowledge, know-how, and competence, and guided by values. Let us be aware of our intrinsic values and trust in ourselves to build a fairer, more balanced and more united world.
