Senegal’s President Bassirou Diomaye Faye has officially terminated the appointment of Ousmane Sonko as Prime Minister, along with the entire cabinet. The decree, broadcast on national television, marks a significant shift in the country’s political landscape.
This decisive move came shortly after Prime Minister Sonko addressed lawmakers during a parliamentary session, where he fielded questions from deputies on pressing national issues. The timing of the dismissal, following his address, underscores the gravity of the decision.
In a swift response, Sonko took to the social platform X to share his reaction. His post, written in French, conveyed a sense of relief as he stated his intention to rest peacefully in his residence at Keur Gorgui that evening.
