After a presidential campaign marked by tensions and controversies, Sonko is now running as the head of his party’s list for the legislative elections, determined to strengthen his and PASTEF’s influence within the National Assembly. His candidacy, emerging in a tense political climate, highlights the critical stakes for Sonko, who seeks to rally a broad electoral base by emphasizing his proposals for a profound reform of Senegal’s political and economic system.

In this new battle, Ousmane Sonko will face a fragmented yet powerful opposition, notably the coalition led by Barthélemy Dias and other influential political figures. The challenge is significant, but with his message firmly focused on systemic change, Sonko hopes to mobilize voters eager for transformation. The 2024 legislative elections are shaping up to be a decisive turning point for Sonko and his party, as all eyes turn to this election, which could redefine the balance of power in Senegal.
