DEDICATION I dedicate this book to: - my late father, El Hajj Moussa, for his great affection and his self-sacrifice - my mother, Hadja Sarata Cissé, for her continuing work - my children: Moussa, Madoussou, Ahmed and Mariame so that this remains - all the secondary school supervisors and classmates of Péla, sonfonia, yimbaya, the Computer Centre of the University Gamal Abdel Nasser of Conakry and the University of Labé. This book tells a true story. From my early childhood between Péla and Moussadou until my schooling, in a region of large forests of Yomou, N'Zérékoré, Ziama but also in Labé, Conakry and Monrovia.

PREFACE This is an autobiographical essay of the author. He traces his life from his childhood in the villages of Péla (Yomou prefecture) and Moussadou (Beyla prefecture) in Guinee Forestière , his adolescence and his schooling in the two villages, in Conakry, Labé and Monrovia. With an easy-to-read style, Mohamed Cissé invites the reader into his life, without taboos. Although he could have done it without certain details, it makes him discover the most joyful moments of his life as well as moments of trial. It is precisely how he faced his trials which is, it seems to me, the main lesson that the author wants to teach and the experience that he wants to share through this work. Faced with some of these challenges, many children and/or adolescents would have dropped out of school. Having passed this stage, many young graduates of his age have resigned in the face of some of the challenges he has had to face in the world of employment. Some have succumbed under the burden of despair or the illusion of ease to engage in perilous adventures across the Maghrebi desert or the Mediterranean. There is a saying that: “poverty is made in bed; you cannot sleep as if you were in competition with the dead and expect to be rich in the world of the living.” This saying is often cited to show the contrast between people who work hard and hard to achieve their dreams and

those who claim to have ambitions and goals without working to achieve them. By deciding to stay in school despite the difficulties, to apply himself personally with what some call "odd jobs" to help himself and his parents, by making difficult choices to ensure good professional integration, Cissé demonstrated determination, self-sacrifice and perseverance: qualities necessary for success in this world which does not favour lazy people or people who fold their arms while waiting for miracles. This is what many young Guineans are missing these days. I have worked with Cissé for almost five years now. My company had a partnership with his security company. I had a lot of exchanges with him and followed him on socio-political issues in our country. Our interactions during these years allow me to attest to his determination and perseverance. By deciding to share his experience with young people through this book is a good thing. I encourage readers of this essay to read it as a well-written story, but above all as a life experience with lessons to learn from it and a source of inspiration for their own lives. Issaka K.

MY ORIGINS AND MY CHILDHOOD It was October. This Saturday morning a heavy rain fell on the town of Péla. I already piled up my little baggage on the platform of my mother's hut, which clearly indicated to my family that the time for separation had come. I was barely seven years old. Taking advantage of this rain, my grandfather's griot slipped noiselessly through the little door like a snake and pulled me to him in my mother's hut. Far from witnesses and any prying eyes, he told me this: You have to leave. One adage says: "knowing yourself is the first remedy" that's why I want you to know where you come from, that's why you will understand many things... A soothsayer predicted your birth. He said, on Wednesday, June twenty-first, nineteen seventy-eight at 11 p.m., the locality of Péla, a sub-prefecture, located about twenty kilometres from Yomou and forty kilometres from N'Nzérékoré , will be crossed by events all day and until late at night. It all started early in the morning when the muezzin, as usual, went out to invite the Muslim faithful to morning prayer. As he climbed the last steps leading to the roof of the mosque's minaret, he saw a panther. Apparently, she
