The Speaker of Parliament in Senegal, El Malick Ndiaye, has resigned from his position, just two days after the dismissal of Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko, a development that has deepened political uncertainty in the country.
In a statement released on Sunday, Ndiaye said his decision was based on “personal reasons,” although he did not provide further details regarding his resignation.
The resignation comes at a tense moment in Senegal’s political landscape following the removal of Sonko, one of the country’s most influential political figures.
Political observers say the sudden changes within the country’s leadership could further heighten tensions and raise concerns about the future direction of governance and political stability in Senegal.
