In a decisive move, President Bassirou Diomaye Faye terminated the mandate of Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko, along with the entire government, as stated in the official announcement.
This decision was broadcast nationwide on television, marking a significant institutional shift just hours after the outgoing prime minister addressed lawmakers during a parliamentary session focused on government accountability.
Ousmane Sonko, moments after receiving his dismissal, took to social media platform X to share his reaction. His post conveyed a sense of relief and peace, stating, “Alhamdoulillah. Tonight, I will sleep peacefully in the Keur Gorgui residence.”
