Momodou,
Concerning the woman who resisted French colnialism in
the Casamance,i think you may be talking of Aline
Sittoe Diatta.I think she hailed from
Oussouye,although i stand to be corrected on the
issue.Infact the stadium in Ziguinchor is named after
her in recognition of her valiant resistance to French
presence in the Casamance.Unfortunately,i don't have
more details on the exact feats of this legend.
Regards
Cherno
