'Neegu Goor' and Initiation Rites for Senegalese men

Hello everyone! I am currently reading a book on islamic rites of passage and initiation, and it made me think of the concepts of "Neegou Goor" as well as the "luul" that happens in casamance. I attended the festival at my diola maternal village two years ago which left me more confused to be honest.

But is the concept and importance of neegou goor and Arafal (correct me if these are not correlated I don't know much about what these entail as I am a lady) still as important and practiced in Senegal for young boys? especially those in more urban areas like Dakar?

For the senegalese men what were some important rites of passage that were tied to developing your masculinity, and what would you pass on to your sons. Also what are some traditions or teachings from various ethnic groups?

Please feel free to share anything as I am very curious, I feel this is a very important cultural topic that is not often discussed.
