On Wednesday, August 16, 2023, Ousmane Sonko was notified that his party is dissolving and himself by virtue of his conviction in one of the many cases that challenge him he will not be able to participate in the Senegalese presidential election of 2024 This decision tears Senegalese opinion both in the country and abroad.
In Labé, as in the country of Teranga, the positions are often antagonistic.
Pape Gueye has a bit of compassion for the opponent who is now on hunger strike in his detention: “It hurts! We pity him, at the moment because he suffered too much he will not participate in the 2024 elections, he is young and has the future ahead of him, the Senegalese people really liked him…”
Oudalaye Ndiaye finds that the young leader of Pastef committed suicide alone:
“He who is in search of power must not act as he behaved, he knows the problems and has led people into his ride and they have understood his lack of seriousness and have let him down. It is true that he says to himself that it is Macky who prevents him from running but he is not an opponent of Macky who will not be a candidate in 2024. Sonko drags a lot of pans including the Adji Sarr affair, the youth corruption he pushed to protest and the theft of a police officer’s phone…”
As a reminder, some Senegalese media are solid with the idea that the cancellation of the third of the 2019 elections has been issued for weeks and comes from the Minister of the Interior Felix Diome.
