Three days after the inauguration of Bassirou Diomaye Faye, the country's 5th president, Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko made his government team public. It is made up of 25 ministers and five secretaries of state.
With twenty-five ministers, they are almost 10 fewer than the last government under Macky Sall. Professor of political sociology Alassane Ndao sees this as a sign of rupture and a desire for openness, to integrate into this government.
