"Piccmi.com - "I thank all of Senegal home and abroad, even if they voted overwhelmingly against me. I pray for him (Macky Sall). I wish him well, but he made huge vows ahead. I'll call him and thank all the political and religious leaders who supported me. The people have much faith in the alleged monarchical devolution project. This has served. My balance is largely positive. The people did not prefer Macky Sall to me but is a willingness to change.
I take note. The liberal path will be continued, it is my belief. That those who were with me and feel they must go to work with him has to go. Power is lost, but the Senegalese Democratic Party will outlive me with settings and major changes. Other centers will open opposition, the games will also be open. I've thought and ideas will be materialized by my successors. Do not ask me that. It's time to digest the defeat, then we will analyze it and draw lessons. Heads up, I walk the streets of this country. I'm Senegalese and I will stay here, I will not do less than my predecessors. (He roars with laughter). Accuse me of usurping power and radio television Senegal(rts) make false results is inelegant and no class for someone who aspires to lead this country, our children. " "

The ndiguël marabout who do not have operated the merit of ending the proliferation of what has been called the 'ndiguël devices'.

This situation caused the frustration of a certain class in several marabouts religious homes where defections were noted.
Some members of the brotherhood to which the outgoing president said to belong believe that the defeat of Wade stands for a huge loss for this religious community. They justify this regard by the fact that it would Muridism who lose one of its strong men. It is not so for others! 'If Wade suffered an electoral defeat on Sunday evening March 25, the Mouride community will have no disappointment as the Caliph gave no instructions to vote.

""Wade emerges" is the title that could give the reaction Aminata Lo Dieng, formerly a government minister under Wade. For the latter, the Secretary General of the Senegalese Democratic Party (PDS) should bow out after its defeat on March 25. This responsibility in the department of liberal Pikine says the last investiture in his political party is null and void, as being in "flagrant violation of party rules." "It's worse than the famous congress of the Socialist Party without debate," said the former minister of social action that expresses his anger and everything after the Congress of 31 March organized by the liberal training CICES. For Ms. Lo, no basic structure of their party has expressed an opinion and the events do not become part of the state of the art. "The PDS risk implosion," adds Aminata Lo, who also reveals that she is the head of a large frond, which will be fatal to the former ruling party. Already ministers, deputies and directors of companies are behind it. Their goal is nothing other than the creation of another political party in which "there will be more democracy and fairness." The former minister should also hold a press conference this Thursday, April 5 to be explained more fully on its decision, inform our colleagues at the Tribune." |
