Former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Timi Frank, has blasted President Bassirou Diomaye Faye for betraying the trust of the Senegalese people.
Frank made this known in a statement on Friday amid controversy that trailed Senegal’s newly elected Speaker Ousmane Sonko.
He said the political crisis in Senegal reflects what he described as a painful betrayal of the revolutionary vision championed by former Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko.
According to him, millions of Senegalese youths who supported the movement in pursuit of accountability, sovereignty, and institutional reforms are now disillusioned by what they see as a gradual return to the old political order.
He added that Senegalese now view the development as a betrayal of the revolution they fought for.
“Without Sonko’s sacrifices, political structure, popularity, and influence among Senegalese youths, Bassirou Diomaye Faye would almost certainly never have become president,” Frank stated.
“The fight between President Faye and PM Sonko is mainly because President Faye has betrayed the trust reposed in him by the Senegalese people by taking Senegal back to the control of France,” Frank alleged.
