The political climate in Senegal remains tense as the opposition continues to demand a neutral Minister of the Interior for the upcoming presidential elections. After the appointment of Sidiki Kaba as Prime Minister, presidential candidate Déthié Fall maintains his claim for an impartial head of the Ministry of the Interior. He emphasizes the importance of ensuring a transparent election, especially after a tumultuous pre-election period.

Déthié Fall, gearing up for his election campaign, warns of the possible consequences of an election organized by a partisan figure.
