A talented Senegalese student who went missing in France has said she was on “a little break to regain her senses”.
Diary Sow did not return to school after the Christmas holidays, causing concern in Senegal and France. She was studying at a prestigious Paris school.
Described as “the best student in Senegal”, Ms Sow won several national academic prizes and published her first novel last year.
In a letter she sent Water and Sanitation Minister Serigne Mbaye Thiam, she said she was “not the victim of any kind of pressure” and apologised to those worried about her.
“It is not about overwork, or madness, or the desire for freedom,” she said.
