Massive turnout greets Ousmane Sonko in Louga

As he prepared to continue his visit inside the daara, political leader Ousmane Sonko was met by an overwhelming crowd that brought his movements to a halt.

Unexpected welcome in Koki

During a visit to Louga on Saturday morning, Ousmane Sonko made his way to the Koki daara. However, the leader of Pastef found his progress halted by a remarkable gathering of talibés eager to see him.

The sheer scale of the mobilization transformed the planned itinerary, forcing Sonko to pause his visit amid the lively atmosphere created by the enthusiastic crowd.

Talibés take center stage

The talibés—numerous and vocal—formed a human barrier that prevented Sonko’s entourage from advancing. Cheers and chants of the leader’s name echoed through the area, creating an energetic backdrop that reshaped the visit’s original schedule.

This spontaneous outpouring of support not only interrupted the official program but also highlighted the deep connection between Sonko and the local community in Koki.
