Impact shared an excerpt from France Info in which Mohamed, 18, explained that he obtained a general baccalaureate in mathematics and physics-chemistry and made 80 applications to IFSI, without receiving any admissions. He mentioned that he found himself without a school or job and had protested despite his peaceful temperament. Mohamed believed that the media primarily highlighted the damage and looting, to the detriment of the demands regarding purchasing power.
