Senegal: The time for division is over; now is the time for national resurgence (By Moustapha BA)

Sénégal : l’heure n’est plus à la division, mais au sursaut national (Par Moustapha BA)

Let's save Senegal! This is a cry from the heart, a patriotic appeal that I am making to our leaders, our religious guides, our intellectuals and all citizens who carry this country in their soul.

We are at a crucial juncture. Behind the scenes, some are acting not out of love for Senegal, but to sow discord, burn bridges, pit allies against each other, and weaken national cohesion. These maneuvers do not serve the people; they serve personal ambitions.

Today, self-appointed commentators, opportunistic “experts,” short-sighted politicians, and external lobbyists presume to speak on behalf of the Senegalese people. But this people aspires neither to chaos, nor hatred, nor confrontation.

The Senegalese people want stability, employment, social peace, and development. These are the values that make our nation strong. Those who play with the fire of division bear a heavy responsibility before history.

Let's look around us. In France, a country with a strong institutional framework, political instability has plunged the nation into a crisis of governance.

In less than a year, three Prime Ministers — Michel Barnier, François Bayrou and Sébastien Lecornu — have been overthrown or forced to resign because of a fragmented National Assembly and repeated motions of censure.

The result: a paralyzed country, blocked reforms, a divided society.

When the parliamentary majority becomes an instrument of obstruction rather than a tool of governance, democracy is suffocated.

The French example should alert us: without consensus, no government can govern sustainably.

Ousmane Sonko retains all his political legitimacy and his seat in the National Assembly. But let's be clear: if he were to decide to take his seat with a parliamentary majority loyal to him, he could make the country ungovernable.

This is not what the Senegalese people want. Instability benefits no one. It jeopardizes reforms, social cohesion, and the hopes of an already hard-hit youth.

The real benefit for Senegal is that these two friends, this tandem carrying a great national project, work together, in complementarity and loyalty.

Pitting them against each other weakens the very foundation of our political stability.

Uniting them gives Senegal a unique chance to recover, innovate and build an African model of peaceful governance.

The time has come to talk to each other, to listen to each other, and to move beyond ego clashes.

Religious leaders, wise men, civil society actors — your voice matters.

Politicians — your responsibility is immense.

Citizens — your vigilance is our last line of defense.

We only have one country. And that country is called Senegal.

Let us preserve it, unite it, love it.

Before it's too late.

    Il faut virer Mimi et Aida Mbodj : elles ne servent à rien, desservent tous, n'ont aucun résultat sinon la grande bouche et le talent de girouette.
    Le projet est plus important que leurs personnes et les ennemis internes suffisamment nombreux pour ne pas en rajouter. Le dr Diouf doit aussi être le prochain sur la liste : Diomaye, ne te trompe pas de camp. Dans l'autre, il n'y a que tes nouveaux amis dont le signe astrologique est cacatar !

    Y’a une crise d’autorité dans ce pays. On ne sent pas Dioamye . Il doit s’affirmer davantage au lieu de laisser Sonko prendre tous les coups et lui il avance ses points derrière. Diomaye parle ns , montre ns ce que tu sais faire. Oui tu vas prendre des coups mais tu peux en donner aussi. Bref fo ñu jemé?

    Ces pastefiens n ont rien compris à la démarche de mr ba
    On leur parle d unité nationale eux ils parlent de pastef
    C’est dommage pour le Sénégal
    Avec le pastef le Sénégal va tout droit à la catastrophe
    Le peuple doit s unir en un seul homme pour bouter le pastef hors du pouvoir aux prochaines élections
