Reality bends

In an interview with the municipal councilman of Patte D'Oie on land rights for urban agriculture in the municipality. On word choice:"I like to use the word 'primitif (primitive)' instead of traditional or native because the root is the word 'premier (first)". Then on post independence reforms: "At midnight of 17 June 1964, all the land that was not registered to the state became national domain. 80% + of the land in Senegal was not registered. This all became the land of the state. So, from this moment, all primative property rights «disappeared». But actually, this didn’t disappear at all. Why? In 1964 this law was voted. But no administrative or legal or social framework was set up to enforce or apply this. The law should be applied. But it wasn’t."
