That is not a tropical wave but ITCZ related convection enhanced by a trough in the eastern atlantic which causes divergence that forms convection in the ITCZ.

ITCZ...
ITCZ 10N13W 9N30W 7N40W 7N50W 8N59W 11N62W 9N74W 11N86W.
SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS STRONG SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FROM
6N TO 10N BETWEEN 20W AND 27W...AND FROM 11N TO 13N BETWEEN
26W AND 30W.
