Attention fellow youths

Tuesday, November 18, 2008

In Bakau, there was once a boy called Saidou.  He lived with his family and liked to fish in the river with him father who was the best fisherman in the village.  One day, he wanted to go fishing alone but his father refused.

“You cannot go fishing alone until you are old enough and have your own fishing net,” he said. When his father travelled to Basse, he had to help his mother dig out the cassava in their garden. 

So Saidou went and began to dig. As he was digging, he kept his money so as to have enough when he was bigger to buy a net of his own.  Many years later he bought a lot of nets and became a good fisherman just like his father.
