Following Ousmane Sonko’s latest declaration in Touba, Abdourahmane Diouf, leader of the Awalé party, broke his silence with a sharp critique. The former Higher Education Minister took to social media to challenge the National Assembly President’s leadership, branding him a ‘gate-crashing deputy’* who had seized the parliamentary podium.
In a no-holds-barred statement, Diouf dissected Sonko’s rhetoric in a politically charged climate where supporters of President Diomaye and Sonko are locked in fierce confrontation. ‘Procedures slip through your grasp without you ever grasping their essence; morality you preach suffocates under your inability to embody it; analytical rigor crumbles under the weight of glaring intellectual emptiness; truth gives way to shameless manipulation that paves the way for a hollow revolution, devoid of solid guidance,’ Diouf wrote.
Awalé’s chairman, known for his uncompromising stance, did not mince words. His remarks underscored deepening tensions within Senegal’s political landscape, where parliamentary authority and public trust are increasingly questioned.
