This Friday, May 15, 2026, Ousmane Sonko, Prime Minister and leader of the PASTEF/Les Patriotes party, has called for a crucial meeting with top officials from his political command at his residence in the Cité Keur Gorgui. Scheduled for 6:00 PM, the gathering comes at a pivotal moment for the nation, amid growing rifts within the governing coalition and heightened preparations for upcoming elections.
The official agenda remains undisclosed, though insiders within the party hint at key discussions that will shape the party’s strategy. Among the critical topics: assessing the impact of recent nationwide mobilizations led by the Diomaye Président coalition, particularly following the high-profile rally in Mbour. The meeting also aims to strengthen unity within the party amid escalating criticism from opposition factions and to prepare for the impending renewal of the party’s presidency, announced just last night.
Confirmed attendees for this evening’s closed-door session include El Malick Ndiaye, Birame Souleye Diop, Yassine Fall, and Abass Fall Ak Ayib Daffé.
