Driving through west Mali is not a problem securuty-wise, no more than Senegal. No kidnappings.
There are new roads being built from Kayes south to Kenieba.
From Kenieba on to Guinea I am not sure, as I have never been that way.
There are roads on the map, but probably not paved and perhaps just mud tracks. Larger road is going over Kedogou in the corner of Senegal.
These Senegalese borders are much more pleasant to cross than the north.
It would take three days from Nouakchott to Guinea, about the same as going over Rosso/Diama then.
