Tuhia he haere tonu mo tenei irava - Ko Ndiaye te tama a te gendarme, a ko tana tuakana ko te kaiwhakahaere kiriata a Souleymane Cissé. I whakaaweahia e te mahi a tona tuakana, ka neke a Ndiaye ki Kanata ki te ako kiriata i te Université du Québec à Montréal. I hoki ia ki Bamako i te tau 1997 ki te whiwhi tohu paetahi i roto i te hitori. I te tau 1998, i whakatuhia e Ndiaye te roopu whakaari a BlonBa me tana hoa, te tohunga hinengaro French me te kaituhi a Jean-Louis Sagot-Duvauroux. I ako hoki ia i nga whanaungatanga ahurea i te Whare Wananga o Sorbonne Nouvelle Paris 3. I uru a Ndiaye ki te tuhi me te whakaputa i nga whakaaturanga e rima i roto i te tikanga o te whare tapere kotèba, ana ko te roopu BlonBa i whakaatu i nga rau whakaaturanga i Senegal, Benin, France me Belgium. I te marama o Hanuere 2007, i whakatuwherahia e BlonBa tana waahi ahurea, ko te mea anake ki te Whare Ahurea French (CCF). Ko te waahi ahurea i kaha ki te kati i muri i te 2012 o Mali coup d'état
, engari i whakaaetia e tana peka French kia noho tonu ki te pakihi.
