, reporting about President Macky Sall of Senegal’s decision to run for legislative elections:
Macky Sall, the former President of Senegal, has announced his candidacy in the upcoming legislative elections on November 17. He is leading the national list for the coalition Takku Wallu Sénégal, which was formed around his party, the Alliance for the Republic (APR) and the Senegalese Democratic Party.
According to reports from the Senegalese Press Agency, Sall wrote a letter to his supporters and the citizens of Senegal, explaining his decision to accept the nomination from the coalition. In his letter, the former president paints a concerning picture of the current state of the country, just eight months after the end of his 12-year term.
Sall’s letter highlights the support of “men and women of value” who are dedicated to the progress and well-being of Senegal. He also expresses his determination to continue serving his country and promoting its growth and development.
The coalition Takku Wallu Sénégal represents a unification of different political parties, including Sall’s APR and the party of his predecessor Abdoulaye Wade, the Senegalese Democratic Party. Sall’s decision to run as a candidate for the coalition further strengthens his ties with Wade, showing a united front in their shared goals for Senegal’s future.
As the legislative elections approach, it will be interesting to see the outcome of Sall’s candidacy and its potential impact on the political landscape of Senegal. With his experience as a former president and the support of a strong coalition, Sall has the potential to make a significant impact on the future of the country
