    Biography: Youssouph Demba was born and raised in Kabadio, located in the northwestern part of the region of Ziguinchor, where he received his Quranic education. He also attended French school for six years. After many years of Quranic studies and Sufi training, he conducted peripatetic learning under the guidance of several scholars in the region to deepen his knowledge in Islamic mystical sciences, including divination. He now works as a religious leader, diviner, healer, and researcher.
