Religion in Senegal
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Religion and beliefs occupy an important place in the daily life of the nation of Senegal. The majority of citizens follow Islam (mainly Sunni Islam). In 2013, 6% of the population followed indigenous beliefs (mainly Serer), while 2% followed Christianity (principally Catholicism).[2]
The constitution provides for freedom of religious beliefs and self-governance by religious groups without outside interference.[3]
