This Saturday, more than a thousand people gathered in Mamoudzou, capital of Mayotte, to show their support for the Wuambushu operation intended to dislodge irregular migrants in the slums of the archipelago. A business that needs to be completed, according to Estelle Youssouffa, MP for Mayotte.

If the Wuambushu operation, carried out in Mayotte by the French authorities in order to fight against illegal immigration, proves to be difficult to pilot, it received this Saturday the support of more than a thousand Mahorais, gathered in Mamoudzou , capital of the archipelago. These migrants, mostly from neighboring Comoros, find refuge in unsanitary slums, the first destruction of which began a few days ago. Joined by Europe 1, Estelle Youssouffa, Liot MP for Mayotte, cannot imagine anything other than a success for this operation and welcomes the mobilization observed this Saturday.

“This mobilization was above all to preempt the pro-Comorian mobilizations which were planned in France and which are driving us completely crazy, we Mahorais. And then it was to thwart this anti-Wuambushu discourse which seems to me above ground “, she assures. According to the elected official, this operation enjoys “massive support” and arouses “enormous hope” among the Mahoran population. A reality badly perceived from France, she judges.

“Regain control of the situation in Mayotte”

A so-called “last chance” operation, according to Estelle Youssouffa, which would make it possible to “take back control of the situation in Mayotte and return to normal life”. In any case, the MP does not envisage any other outcome. “We are, I repeat, doomed to succeed in Operation Wuambushu. Otherwise, the population will take up arms and solve the problem because the situation is no longer livable.”

And the parliamentarian to highlight the “faith in our police forces and in the republican order” shown by the Mahorais. “We massively want this Wuambushu operation to succeed. Otherwise, it means that the state has lost control of Mayotte. And that is not acceptable,” she concludes.
