Dakar, Nov 20 (APS) – The National Council of the Laity of Senegal on Wednesday sent its congratulations to the Pastef party given as the winner of Sunday’s early legislative elections while paying tribute to the other parties and coalitions that took part in the vote for their acceptance of the results .
”The National Council of the Laity of Senegal congratulates the Pastef party for its large victory which reflects the will of the Senegalese people. At the same time, it encourages the other parties and coalitions which took part in this competition,” reports a press release from the structure.
In the document received by the APS the same day, the laity pays tribute to the other parties and coalitions for their acceptance of the results and their congratulations addressed to the Pastef party.
The ruling party, African Patriots of Senegal for Work, Ethics and Fraternity, largely won Sunday’s legislative elections. While the official provisional results should be made public on Friday at the latest, projections from the media and other independent structures predict less than 130 of the 165 deputy seats.
The National Council of the Laity of Senegal salutes the vitality of Senegalese democracy, considering that Sunday’s legislative elections took place in major incidents likely to taint the credibility of the vote.
He invites all political actors to understand that the “maturity of Senegalese democracy does not go well with the violence which contributes to tarnishing the image of the country”.
