Ndiaga Seck’s statement on his private life in ongoing investigation

Politician Ndiaga Seck clarifies private affairs amid legal scrutiny

During his interrogation sessions, prominent political figure Ndiaga Seck addressed inquiries regarding his relationship with Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko, delivering a straightforward account of his personal life. « Xamul woon li may dund » — « He knew nothing about my private affairs » — he declared in Wolof, emphasizing that his association with Sonko remained strictly professional.

The probe, which began at the Urban Police Station in Linguère, has since escalated to the investigation chamber of Louga, where Seck remains detained under a judicial remand order. The 51-year-old politician was formally charged and placed in custody this week after being brought before the court following allegations of « presumed unnatural acts. »

Key developments in the case:

  • Legal status: Seck is currently held under a judicial remand, with proceedings advancing in Louga.
  • Allegations: The charges stem from accusations investigated by authorities in Linguère.
  • Statement: Seck’s declaration underscores the separation between his private life and political connections.

The investigation continues as legal authorities examine the circumstances surrounding the case.
