The Speaker of Senegal’s National Assembly has confirmed that Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko and his cabinet will face lawmakers on Friday, May 22, 2026, for a high-stakes session of parliamentary questions. This engagement is a core function of the legislature, ensuring that the executive branch remains accountable to elected representatives.
During the session, deputies are expected to scrutinize the government’s handling of pressing concerns spanning economic stability, rising living costs, job creation, institutional reforms, and ongoing public policies. The exchange is set to be a robust forum for debate, reflecting both the challenges facing the nation and the government’s strategic responses.
Since assuming office in April 2024, Prime Minister Sonko has participated in four prior sessions of this nature, establishing these interactions as a cornerstone of Senegal’s parliamentary oversight process.
