Senegal once again demonstrated its democratic maturity during the 2024 legislative elections. The Pastef party, led by Ousmane Sonko, won a resounding victory, marking a significant turning point in the political history of the country. What is particularly remarkable is the way in which this victory was greeted by the main political adversaries, showing a deep respect for democratic values.
Barthélémy Dias, head of the Samm Sa Kaddu coalition list, expressed his congratulations to Pastef, emphasizing the importance of this moment for Senegalese democracy. In a statement full of respect for republican institutions, he declared: “Senegal has just experienced a strong democratic moment. As head of the Samm Sa Kaddu coalition list, I would like to warmly congratulate the winner of the elections, Pastef. Our commitment to a just, united and forward-looking Senegal remains intact. »
Amadou Ba, head of the Jamm ak Njarin coalition list and candidate who came second in the presidential election last March, also warmly congratulated Pastef for this victory, which reflects the will of the people. “This moment, beyond the divisions, is a strong moment for our democracy and for Senegal. It reminds us that the essence of politics is to serve, to listen and to build together,” wrote Amadou Ba.
Anta Babacar Ngom, also from the Samm Sa Kaddu coalition, was among the first to send her congratulations to Pastef. In a message full of gratitude to the Senegalese people, she said: “Congratulations to the Pastef coalition for its victory in the 2024 legislative elections. This election testifies to the democratic vivacity of our dear Senegalese people. Thank you to the activists and supporters who trusted me, as well as to the Samm Sa Kaddu coalition and ARC! » These declarations illustrate not only a recognition of the results, but also a desire to unite forces for the future of the country.
Bougane Guèye Dany also congratulated Ousmane Sonko and the Pastef party. In his press release, he welcomed the decision of the Senegalese and stressed the importance of meeting the needs of the population: “Dear compatriots, Gueum Sa Bopp, The Jambars congratulate Mr. Ousmane Sonko and Pastef. The Senegalese voted and confirmed their choice of March 24. […] Significant challenges await us, and we are determined to meet them for the happiness of Senegal, which is at the heart of our commitment. » Bougane Guèye Dany also recalled his movement’s commitment to a constructive opposition, while calling for a focus on national priorities.
