upon the announcement of the death of the Honorable Abdoul Galil Mansour Haïdara, which occurred yesterday, Thursday, October 2, 2025, on the Ségou-Bamako road.
It is with deep sadness that we learned of the tragic passing of the Honorable Abdoul Galil Mansour Haïdara, former Member of the National Assembly of Mali, President of the Cheick Mansour Haïdara Foundation, and respected spiritual guide of the extended family of the late Cheick Mansour Haïdara.
A man of great wisdom, he was able, through his radiant humanism and exemplary generosity, to embody the noblest values of public and spiritual service. His unwavering commitment to his hometown of Ségou, his commune, his region, and the entire Malian nation will remain etched in our memories as a living testament to love for one's neighbor, self-sacrifice, and a lofty sense of duty.
In this time of mourning, we pray that his soul may rest in peace and that the Almighty may receive him in His infinite mercy. May his legacy continue to inspire future generations to work for justice, peace, fraternity, and unity.
To his grieving family, his loved ones, his followers, and all those affected by his passing, we extend, on behalf of the Urban Commune of Ségou and all its people, our most sincere condolences and the expression of our deepest compassion.
