In Senegal, the opposition mobilizes against the indefinite postponement of the presidential election. Several opposition candidates announced on Sunday to the press and on social networks that they would override President Macky Sall's decision and maintain the launch of their electoral campaign on Sunday.
The announcement made on Saturday by the Senegalese president, elected in 2012 and re-elected in 2019, in a context of serious political crisis, also caused concern abroad. It once again plunges this country, known as an island of stability in Africa, into the unknown, but which has experienced various episodes of deadly unrest since 2021.
