Hello everyone and welcome to the Senego morning show on Saturday, June 29, 2024. On the menu today are the most heated debates from last night. Let’s explore the topics that captured our readers’ attention.
1. Abdou Mbow and BBY oppose dissolution of the National Assembly
Abdou M’Bo, president of the Bennot Boque Yaka (BBY) parliamentary group, has strongly declared that he and his colleagues will oppose any attempt to dissolve the National Assembly. At a press conference in Dakar, Friday, June 28, 2024, he advocated for a constitutional reform aimed at removing the clause that allows the President of the Republic to dissolve the National Assembly. This, he said, would ensure a clear separation of powers between the executive and the legislature.

2. Thierno Alassane Sall’s criticism of Sonko’s DPG
The debate around Ousmane Sonko’s General Policy Declaration (DPG) continues to stir. MP Thierno Alassane Sall reacted strongly to Sonko’s remarks, suggesting that he resolve the “imaginary crisis” with the National Assembly instead of issuing an ultimatum. Sall expressed his disappointment, noting that the current debate has not met the expectations of Senegalese, who wanted to discuss more fundamental topics such as corruption and youth unemployment.
3. Madiambal Diagne’s response to Sonko’s threats
Journalist Madianbal Diagne described Ousmane Sonko’s threat to publish the General Policy Declaration (DPG) outside the National Assembly as a “coup d’état that he announced on July 15, 2024.” According to Diagne, Sonko’s explicit announcement that he would hold parliamentary elections before another parliament convenes if “deficiencies” persist within the National Assembly has sparked a strong reaction.
