The masquerade Zimba is a spite one despite the social entertainments normally provided. I think they call the pass in wollof "faas" which would permit you to be free in the vicinity of the Zimbas. The Kankurang has created similar environments in the past. In as much as they (masquerades) have their beliefs of aggression, they should respect others. May be the Zimba community will need to put in place some strict rules which will forbid zimbas from harming people like noted in the article above.
 
For sure, this one escaped the purpose of the function. May God Almighty reward the poor lad with Jannah. 
 
Regards,
YJ
