QUI VOUS FAIT PEUR, MONSIEUR LE PRÉSIDENT ? ( Par Amadou Lamine Ba)
A CITIZEN IS SPEAKING TO YOU.
The silence of the Senegalese state regarding the candidacy of poet Amadou Lamine Sall for the position of Secretary General of the Francophonie is no longer a simple oversight:
It's a republican anomaly.
A provocative but legitimate question then arises:
In Senegal, are there citizens who are listened to… and others who are ignored?
Mr. President: a citizen is speaking to you. Listen to him as a head of state listens to his people.
I remember a famous video:
A French citizen shouts, "Mr. President, a citizen wants to speak to you!"
And Emmanuel Macron, running, crosses the street to listen to this man.
That's what respecting the people is all about.
That is what state greatness is all about.
How then to explain, Mr. President,
that you are not responding to a Senegalese man who has served his nation,
honored his country
and brought Africa to the world's greatest stages?
A man who served the State, culture, history and the Francophonie
This is what Amadou Lamine Sall represents:
• President of the Writers of Senegal
• Secretary General of the Biennale of Arts and Letters of Senegal
• Secretary General of the Gorée Memorial World Foundation
• Technical advisor at the Ministry of Culture
• Representative of Senegal to the Global Network of Francophone Authors
• Civil servant at the Ministry of the Interior
• Civil servant at the Ministry of Culture
He has inspired doctoral theses and received international awards.
and his voice resonates in the Louvre Museum, a global cultural symbol.
A man respected by the spiritual community: received by the Caliph General of the Mourides
Amadou Lamine Sall was received by the General Khalif of the Mourides.
a distinction that is granted only to those whose lives and values carry meaning, dignity and elevation.
Let us recall what Mouridism represents in the world:
• One of the largest spiritual movements in Africa,
• Present on all continents,
• A benchmark of ethics, work, discipline, and moral influence,
• A religious, social, economic and cultural pillar of Senegal,
• A point of reference for millions of Muslims,
and even a symbol of tolerance respected by Christians.
To be received by the Caliph is to be recognized by one of the most influential moral powers in Africa.
That says a lot about the man.
And that should tell the state a lot.
An expert on the Francophonie, not an impromptu candidate
Fundamental reminder:
• Author of “A Look at the Francophonie”,
• Collaborator of Jean-Louis Roy,
• Collaborator of Abdou Diouf, former president of Senegal and Secretary General of the Francophonie.
He has been in the Francophonie for 40 years.
He didn't apply there by chance:
He contributed to it, thought about it, and participated in it.
Senghor would have responded. Wade would have responded. Macky Sall would have responded.
So what are you waiting for?
Mr. President,
Mr. Prime Minister,
Mr. Minister of Culture,
Why the silence?
What are you afraid of?
What's stopping you from answering?
The inconvenient reminder: God raises whom He wills.
One year before you came to power,
Nobody believed you would replace Macky Sall.
Person.
But God raises whom He wills.
God defies expectations.
God opens the paths that men refuse.
So why prevent another Senegalese person from hoping?
Like in the World Cup: to represent is already to win.
Senegal has qualified for the World Cup.
This is already a source of African pride.
If he wins: Africa wins.
If he loses: his honor is intact, because participating already means carrying continental hope.
Amadou Lamine Sall's candidacy is based on the same logic:
To dare is already to represent.
To represent is already to win.
A state is measured by its ability to respond, not by its silence.
Saying yes is a political act.
Saying no is a republican act.
But saying nothing is an act of erasure.
A state that does not respond:
• creates suspicion
• weakens confidence,
• and suggests that all citizens are not equal.
The Republic cannot function like this.
The moment of truth: answer.
Mr. President,
Mr. Prime Minister,
Mr. Minister of Culture,
A citizen is speaking to you.
A citizen is calling out to you.
A citizen is asking you for a simple act of respect: a response.
Senegal deserves a state that speaks.
Senegal deserves a state that takes responsibility.
Senegal deserves a state that exists.

le Sénégal est mis entre parenthèse , le temps du passage du régime accidentel Pastef.
Nous n'avons plus d'Etat. Le Sénégal n'existe plus;
A nous de le ressusciter en 2029 en prenant nos responsabilités pour dégager PASTEF et tout ce qui lui ressemble. Afin de retrouver notre Sénégal
C est un kuluna du système le senegal ne le sponsorise pas ..
Osons espérer que l’heure du Grand Réveil a sonné au Sénégal
Ce nouveau initié à la franc maçonnerie pense que désormais rien ne lui fait peur puisque tous les francs maçons sont avec lui..Vraiment on ne vous laissera etre notre Alassane Ouattara bis
Il n' a pas le profil. C'est tout.
Comme Ousmane Sonko l'a déjà dit, ce pays manque vraiment d'autorité. Si Diomaye avait implémenté le projet, on n'en serait pas là

Qu'est que ton Amadou Lamine Sall a fait pour le Peuple, ses voisins, ses parents qui ne le connaissent pas etc... Les Fonctions ne font pas un homme accompli en relations humaines idoines. Il ya plein de gens qui ne bossent que pour eux mêmes, égoïstes dans l'âme et le cœur et ils ne fréquentent pas les endroits sociaux. Parler Français à la Française n'intéresse plus les Sénégalais d'aujourd'hui, y compris la .... Poésie. Vaut mieux lire le Coran ou la Bible à ses heures creuses et paisible. Et surtout qu'on vienne crier après que Diomaye n'a pas soutenu Mr Sall, comme Hott la dernière fois. C'est bien d'être carriériste mais bcp mieux avoir des milliers de relations bien connues dans son Pays et en Afrique ou ailleurs. Les séries d'interview dans les médias ne servent pas à grande chose, ni rouler des R ne suffisent point. Si la Présidente rwandaise actuelle à la tête de la Francophonie se présente, elle sera élue à...99, 9 %. L'autre jour sur TV5, elle disait elle n'a pas la taille de Abdou Diouf pour un troisième mandat mais elle attend aussi la voie que lui indiquerait les autorités de son Pays. Qu'elle formidable lucidité et Humilité.
Mon dieu c'est Emmanuel Macron que tu prends comme exemple dans le respect de ces citoyens. Thiey nos intellectuels ils sont clownesque
En tout cas Diomay lui doit demissionner de son poste de président le boubou de president est trop grand pour lui le Sénégal qui était reconnu dans le monde entier par ces leadership politique et intellectuels est devenu la risée du monde depuis qu’il est là plus personne ne nous respecte.
