In a completely different register, Serigne Momar Sokhna, president of Métal du Senegal exporters, spoke about the motorcycle registration project. Addressing mainly motorcycle taxi drivers, commonly known as “Jakartamen”, he encouraged the calm adoption of this government initiative. According to him, this measure offers benefits for the sector concerned but also for the general security of the country. He praised the efforts of the Senegalese authorities, in particular President Bassirou Diomaye Faye and Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko, to structure this essential sector.
