Former founding member and departmental coordinator of the PRP, Doctor Souleymane Mbengue decided to stand out by creating a new political movement called URV/LIGUEY SENEGAL (Union for a Virtuous Republic), based on the principles of key values of the movement: social justice, freedom, equality, participatory democracy, dignity and virtue.
The Polytechnic design engineer in Civil Engineering, who also holds a Doctorate in science and technology, looks back on the events leading to the creation of this structure. “URV/LIGUEY SENEGAL was born in a context where his original political formation, the PRP (Republican Party for Progress), of which he was a founding member, chose to move towards the opposition. He of course respects this decision , but it does not respond to its aspirations, beliefs, orientation and vision,” he said.
Dr Souleymane Mbengue and Co. to mark the way. “URV/LIGUEY SENEGAL, has the intention from its birth, to objectively provide intelligent, strategic, edifying, just, loyal and virtuous support to the regime in place, led by His Excellency President Diomaye Faye and his Prime Minister, the courageous Ousmane Sonko This support will be completely unconditional, without any reservation or negotiation. However, what he requires in return is the establishment of a platform for exchange, communication and dialogue where their ideas, remarks, observations and recommendations on current issues will be welcomed, examined and possibly adopted to ensure good governance of our country.
The said political movement thus presents this roadmap. “A Reliable Intermediary between the People and the Government – A Strengthening of Democracy Based on the Rule of Law – A Limitless Commitment to the Fight Against Poverty. – A Reappropriation of our Natural Resources – Under the Fire of Action to the ills that plague Senegalese society – Innovation, progress and prosperity – A participatory approach, civic and patriotic commitment, a decided and clear position on political transparency – Openness to all, regardless of their origin, their background or past political affiliation.
“We firmly believe that union and diversity of experiences are the key to profoundly transforming our society. In the coming weeks, URV/LIGUEY SENEGAL will organize a series of public and private meetings in several cities across the country in order to present in detail his ideas and collect the opinions of citizens. Dr. Souleymane Mbengue encourages all those who wish to participate in this political renewal to join him. He is convinced that URV/LIGUEY SENEGAL will be the opportunity to change the political landscape. respond to the challenges of our time and build a common future together.
Doctor commits his activists and sympathizers from the beginning to a strong mobilization to grant a resounding victory during their mandate to the current regime which walks on the noble principle of JUB, JUBAL JUBANTI.

Minister Birame Soulèye Diop also had to present him to all the senior dignitaries of the Pastef party in the department of Thiès with whom he has already, in the recent past, shared strong and intense moments of struggle for a better Senegal. Doctor Souleymane Mbengue also thanks Doctor Lassana Gagny Sakho, a senior manager of the pastef who also gave him a remarkable welcome with open arms,” he concluded.
