Commenting on the source of the funds for the construction of the mosque, Mbackiyou Faye, the construction coordinator, noted that there was no external donations for the building of the mosque.

“We didn’t get any external donations. Everything was done by talibés, namely; the members of this brotherhood and the Muslims in general,” he noted.
