Senegal mourns the loss of Guin Thieuss, former host and promoter of Radiotélévision Sénégalaise (RTS), who died this Tuesday. A key figure in the national audiovisual landscape, he leaves behind an indelible legacy marked by his charisma, his passion and his commitment to the profession.
Guin Thieuss left his mark on several generations of viewers with his unique style and his warm presence on screen. A true master of animation, he captivated his audience with his communicative energy and talent, making him one of the most emblematic faces of RTS.
Beyond his professional career, Guin Thieuss was also a fighter. He revealed several years ago that he was suffering from a tumor, an ordeal that he faced with exemplary courage and dignity. His life,
marked by resilience, will remain etched in our memories.
His departure is an inestimable loss for the world of television and animation in Senegal. He was much more than an entertainer: an inspiration to younger generations, a mentor to his colleagues and a living legend of his art.
