Aisha comes from Casamance area of Senegal, south of the Gambia and she is the daughter of an architect. Casamance borders Bambali, Mane’s hometown where he has built a hospital and recently a stadium.
Like Mane, she is a devout Muslim and is said to be God-fearing which is one of the main reasons the footballer was attracted to her.
