President Bassirou Diomaye Faye is poised to establish his independent political party in Senegal, a move that signals a significant realignment within the nation’s political arena. Previously, Mr. Faye held membership in Pastef, the governing party led by Ousmane Sonko, who served as Prime Minister until his dismissal in May. This separation followed months of increasing discord and subtle disagreements between the two prominent figures, who were once close allies, marking a pivotal moment in Senegalese politics.
