National Assembly: Why Ousmane Sonko's Reintegration Could Withstand Challenges

Professor Meissa Diakhaté, a law professor, explains in a contribution the legal obstacles facing challenges to Ousmane Sonko's reinstatement in the National Assembly. He argues that the Electoral Code should not govern post-election deputy status and that the Assembly's internal regulations should take precedence as a special law. He highlights two distinct incompatibility regimes, with Article 123 covering a deputy appointed to the government.
