Reading time: 1 minutes


Your salary feeds your family, but your absence slowly devours it from within.

🌳 The Baobab of Choice — How does it work?

Every week Baobizz plunges you into a dilemma rooted in African realities.
No good answer, no bad one: two paths, two values, an impossible decision.

Read the staging, choose your camp, vote — then come back 48 hours later
discover the complete analysis and what your choice says about you.

You left. Thiès seven years ago for Dakar. You rent a priceless room at Parcelles Assainies, you work in a call center, and every month you send 120,000 francs to your mother, sister and three children. Thanks to you, the kids are in school. But your sister calls crying: her husband knocks her, your mother ages alone, the roof of the house collapses. In the village, a family land has been sleeping for years — You could start a small poultry farm. But if you leave Dakar, transfers stop net. And in Thies, no salary will replace these 120,000 monthly francs.

What do you choose?


A — You stay in Dakar: money flows, but your family dislocates without you.

B — You go back to Thiès: you rebuild the home, but the precarious lookout.
