Institutional Duel: Alioune Tine Advocates for a Prime Minister from the Parliamentary Majority

Alioune Tine calls for the appointment of a Prime Minister from the parliamentary majority to resolve the institutional duel prevailing in Senegal. He emphasizes that the current government, which is in the minority in the National Assembly, is resisting initiatives from the majority aligned with Pastef. This tension peaked on August 18 during an extraordinary session of the Assembly, chaired by Ousmane Sonko. Tine believes that a Prime Minister backed by the parliamentary majority is the only option to restore lasting institutional coherence.
