Reply to Macky Sall's lawyers: Pastef spares its lawyers and sends its "foot soldiers" to the coalface

Réplique aux avocats de Macky Sall : Pastef ménage ses juristes et envoie ses ‘’fantassins’’ au charbon

The press conference (yesterday) of former President Macky Sall's lawyers on the alleged "hidden debt" case visibly shook the Palace. Hosted by the former president of the Paris Bar, Pierre-Olivier Sur, and two eminent Senegalese lawyers who are also former ministers of justice, El Hadji Amadou Sall and Aïssata Tall Sall, this face-off with the local media provided an opportunity for the former head of state's defense to dismantle piece by piece "the allegations" of concealment of figures regarding the public debt.

According to Mr. Sur and Mr. Sall, "there is no problem of hidden debts in Senegal. The real issue is that of hidden reports." "The first hidden report: the report of the financial inspectorate, which is the first to ignite the powder keg, the first to raise the issue of hidden debts. This report is hidden. None of you can tell us that you have had it in your hands. We asked for it, but we did not receive it," insisted the French lawyer, who emphasized that the report of the Court of Auditors "is hidden," as is that of the "Mazars" firm, commissioned by the State.

Pastef sends its foot soldiers in place of the lawyers

Pastef, which has clearly decided to make this case a highly political affair, will respond this Friday, October 24. The ruling party has announced a press conference for 4 p.m. But, instead of its on-duty lawyers, the presidential party has sent its most formidable "foot soldiers": Wally Diouf Bodian (DG Port), Dame Mbodji (DG Sogip), Cheikh Bara Ndiaye (Deputy), and Dr. Amadou Ba Babo (DG 3FPT).

A casting that has been widely criticized online. Some even deride the "dream team" tasked with responding to Macky Sall's lawyers. "Khana Pastef is a desert of lawyers, not to mention executives? Holding a press briefing to respond to lawyers and sending two foot soldiers, a cowboy, and a semi-intellectual? Beware of a systemic rout," quips Patrice Sané, a former member of the Convergence of Republican Executives (CCR) of the April.

Will they be able to provide a response that matches the charge brought by Macky Sall's lawyers, who allege "hidden connections"? Wait and see!

    Quel faux journaliste : tu prends une information d'un parti politique et tu donnes l'analyse de don opposant sans donner au parti concerné son avis. Et on appelle ça du journalisme. Non c'est du pire nafeck

    Macky Sall est entre de bonnes mains avec ce Monsieur Sur. Son précédent client, l'ancien président français Nicolas Sarkozy, a été condamné à cinq ans de prison. Il y a donc encore de l'espoir, mes amis!
