Senegalese Media Mogul Elhaddji Ndiaye Says He Is Richer Than Youssou Ndour!
Senegalese media mogul Elhaddji Ndiaye said he is richer than Youssou Ndour, the multimillion platinum Grammy winner artist. Mr. Ndiaye is upset with the Senegalese Presidential hopeful move to hire one of his 2STV Television staffers Ms. Kebs Thiam after the latter violated contractual agreement she reached with 2STV, Mr. Ndiaye alleged. “ If Youssou Ndour thinks that by taking the garbage in my house, it will do him any good, he must be mistaken,” Elhaddji Ndiaye said while referring to Madam Thiam whom he accused of leaving a bad work legacy at his television. He said the popular anchor Kebs Thiam was not getting along with his staffers prior to her leaving 2STV.
Mr. Ndiaye is not moved by Madam Thiam’s decision to join Youssou Ndour’s news crew. He said he is richer and more credible than Thaim’s new boss Youssou. “ I could pay her three times more than what Youssou is offering her,” he said.
Mr. Ndiaye thinks that Mr. Ndour is out to undermine his business. But he said it’s all good. “ I do not betray people. I do not believe in blackmailing people,” he said adding that he believes in decent business practices.
Mr. Ndiaye, according to DAKARYTU.COM said Madam Thaim tried to sabotage two of her shows prior to leaving. He said Thaim was also in the business of quarreling with technicians and cameramen during field works.
