Power Outages: Bassirou Diomaye Faye Haunted by the Syndrome of Past Regimes

Persistent power outages in Senegal, worsened by the heatwave, are criticized by the opposition which blames Energy Minister Bassirou Diomaye Faye for being unable to resolve the issue. Thierno Diop recalls similar crises under Diouf in 1998 and Wade, especially with the partial privatization of SENELEC. He emphasizes that electricity management is vital for the economy, and the current regime's inaction could cost them votes in upcoming elections, according to political expert Dr. Khassoum Touré.
