Senegal: constitutional revision faces challenges amid Pastef party split

The ongoing constitutional revision process in Sénégal is currently under intense scrutiny, particularly from Madièye MBODJ, the Vice-President of Pastef-Les Patriotes. His analysis delves into the profound implications of the recent split within the ruling Pastef-Les Patriotes party. This internal division gained prominence with the establishment of a new political entity by Diomaye Faye, marking a definitive separation from O. Sonko and the original Pastef movement. MBODJ’s examination critically assesses how these internal party dynamics will impact the feasibility and continuity of Pastef’s stated political program.
