Senegal’s capital struggles to control horse-drawn carts
AFP, DAKAR
At dawn, Mame Mor Anta Ly washes his chestnut-colored horse beneath a noisy overpass on the outskirts of Senegal’s bustling capital. Dozens of other horses are tethered to the ground around him, feeding from troughs improvised from oil drums or rusting bathtubs.
Ly, 40, is waiting to be hired for the day to transport iron rods or bags of cement on his horse-drawn cart.
“Sometimes I wait all day,” he said, prayer beads dangling from his neck.
