Cheikh Diouf[2] is Brain's cousin from Senegal, Africa. He is friends with D.W. He first appears in "In My Africa," when he moves from Senegal to Elwood City. He participates in activities with the other preschoolers, such as acting in the play "All About D.W.", and playing in the sandbox with his truck. Besides that, he is in the courtroom during the episode "Read and Flumberghast." Cheikh has other speaking roles since "In My Africa" in "The Pageant Pickle" and "Citizen Cheikh."
Physical appearance
Cheikh is a anthropomorphic bear with a brown complexion and short dark brown hair with shaved sides. Before Season 16, he usually wears a light green short-sleeve shirt, blue shorts with pockets, and brown sandals. Starting from Season 16, he wears a light yellow shirt instead of a light green one, but his sides are growed out.
For some reasons, Cheikh is seen wearing a purple-and-red shirt with a yellow collar and violet pants that have green lines with purple designs on them.
