Senegalese president receives national dialogue report
Senegalese president Macky Sall was handed the report written following the national dialogue he convened last week.
Before the launch of the dialogue, the leader said he’d rely on the recommendations of the report to set a new date to the delayed 25th February election.
If the president chooses to stick to the proposal of the talks, the presidential poll could take place on 2nd June.
Participants in the dialogue agreed on this date as well as on a partial resumption of the electoral process.
When receiving the report, Macky Sall reiterated his intention to submit his highly anticipated decision to the Constitutional Council for review.
In the meantime, the opposition remains mobilized and continues to ask for the head of state to step down when his term ends on 2nd April.
Concurrently, the National Assembly is studying the amnesty law President Sall proposed during last week’s Cabinet meeting.
The Law Commission is set to study the proposal; it was the turn of the National Assembly’s Conference of Presidents.
