BBC News - Casamance 'MFDC rebels' kill Senegal soldiers

We found in fact a lot of troops when we rode in Feb2011 the road Soma-Bignona-Ziguinchor-Cap Skirring.

Soldiers were holding nice AK47 and we were asked twice to open the panniers. I believe that they were also looking for drugs, given the in-bound traffic in that part of West Africa.
