Every year in September, the king of Oussouye is paid homage to dance, song and wrestling. An audience with the king is not granted to anyone. The main tasks of the king are peace education and conflict management, since for the past 25 years smoldered in the former granary Senegal an armed conflict that has torn deep wounds in this part of the country and its population.
