What are the key provisions of this proposal, and how might it influence the political landscape in Dakar, particularly concerning presidential aspirations for 2029? Papa Fara Diallo, a senior lecturer in political science at Gaston-Bergé University in Saint-Louis, offers his insights into these crucial questions.
