Ousmane Sonko brings his share of truth in the face of the tragic events that followed what he describes as “judicial harassment and the decision to which I was subjected in the case that pitted me against a Senegalese citizen who unfairly accused of rape and gun death threats…“. Chosen piece…
The leader of Pastef spoke in a document entitled: “LIGHT ON THE VIOLENCE OF THE STATE OF SENEGAL AGAINST CIVILIAN POPULATIONS BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER THE JUDICIAL DECISION OF JUNE 1, 2023”. It thus provides a response “ to the undocumented allegations of the Government of Senegal ”, presenting it as being “ responsible for the tragic events that recently occurred in Senegal ”.
The result of previous crises…
According to Ousmane, “ the most recent crises of 2021 and 2023, which triggered an unprecedented resistance movement against the regime of President Macky SALL, are the result of previous crises and the contempt displayed by the regime in place. For want of not having understood the essential demands of the people, of the youth in particular, hard hit by unemployment, the regime of Macky SALL has come to want to cling to power, even if it means violating the Constitution and stepping on corpses by eliminating his political opponents .
” For 11 years that he presides over the destinies of Senegal, President Macky Sall has made the elimination of his political adversaries a doctrine “, he gives the cases of Khalifa Sall and Karim Wade.
A “so-called national dialogue”….
To this end, Sonko believes that ” the political underpinnings of these files have not escaped any Senegalese and are supported by the current negotiations, under the guise of a so-called ‘national dialogue’ whose main objective is the examination, by Mr. Macky Sall, ways and means of their political rehabilitation .
Political-legal “ conspiracies ”…
On this, he considers that the situation he is currently experiencing “ participates in this practice consisting, at the approach of each election, in removing a feared opponent, by means of State persecution and judicial machination ( …) I will limit the following developments to the causes linked to the politico-judicial conspiracies aimed at eliminating me from the presidential race of 2024 and the state hunt against our political party. “.
