Despite the Assembly's announcement, new uncertainty over the holding of the General Policy Statement

The General Policy Statement by Prime Minister Al Aminou Lô is scheduled for September 8, 2026, but its timing remains uncertain. The National Assembly proposed this date, but President Bassirou Diomaye Faye has yet to make a decision. This ambiguity highlights a division of powers between the legislative and executive branches, where the president has the final say. Preparations in the Assembly continue under this uncertainty.
