Who is Aisha Tamba?
Aisha Tamba, a resident of Casamance, a town adjacent to Bambali—her husband Mane's hometown—is reportedly 18 years old, as stated by Senegalese news outlet Sene News.
Born to an architect, she is fluent in the native Mandingo language, the same language spoken by the Al Nassr star. Mane initially noticed Aisha when she was only 16 years old, but out of respect for her status as a minor, he refrained from making a direct approach.
Instead, the ex-Liverpool star conveyed his intentions to his uncle, a close friend of Aisha's father. Mane played a supportive role in her education.
Mrs. Mane is said to be a Quran scholar, dedicating the majority of her early years to studies at a private institute in Mbao. Currently, she is in the final year of her academic journey.
