Malick Gakou finally disavowed, 5 days after his fusion with Pastef

The merger between the Grand Parti and Pastef, announced by Malick Gakou, is contested by local leaders in Pikine-Nord who denounce a decision taken without consulting party members. Departmental coordinator Fallou Gaye expresses surprise and calls the move a solitary approach that does not bind the entire party. Dissidents insist that the Grand Parti remains active on the ground through its local coordinations.
