It appears to be real, according to a rough translate by google.

Here's the source article - https://www.lexpress.fr/informations/mayotte-nous-voulons-etre-comme-la-lozere_623924.html

and here's a rough translate by google -

"The mother of Aimee Issoufou, Zaïna Meresse, 60, is one of the historical fighters of the island. It was part, in the 60s, of the "commando of the tickouilleuses", which, to fight against the stranglehold of Grande Comore on Mayotte, forced the Comorian ministers to go back in the plane by force of tickling. "We could not beat them. What to do, if not tickle them until they crack? "The same ticklishers one day symbolically blocked the last digger that was to leave for Moroni."

I wonder if there were some women among Comorian ministers 🙂

It's also interesting what she means by "until they crack".
