Senegal in Chaos: Ex-PM Sonko Moves to Strip Faye of Major Presidential Powers | Firstpost Africa
Shocking and chaotic scenes have erupted in West Africa as Senegal faces a massive political firestorm. Inside the National Assembly, heavily armed security forces physically wrestled opposition leader Abdou Mbow away from the podium amidst shouting and pure rage. The breakdown of order stems from a highly controversial constitutional reform bill pushed through by the ruling PASTEF party. The sweeping legislation drastically strips major presidential powers from President Bassirou Diomaye Faye and transfers them to the parliament, headed by his former ally-turned-rival, Ousmane Sonko. As the opposition boycotted the session, condemning the government as a 'dictatorship,' anger spilled onto the streets of Dakar. Police fired tear gas to disperse protesters attempting to storm the parliament building. What began as a united political front has devolved into an intense personal war, prompting President Faye to announce a national referendum to let the public decide the country's fate. Alyson Le Grange brings you the details on Firstpost Africa.---
