2026 Amending Finance Bill: Papa Djibril Fall’s fury — “They have their salaries…”

National Assembly member Papa Djibril Fall condemned the referral of the 2026 Amending Finance Bill to committee, saying political considerations are delaying urgent measures. The bill is intended, among other things, to support households, pay amounts owed to construction and public works companies, and deliver family allowances to eligible recipients. He accused Pastef of putting internal political disputes ahead of Senegalese citizens’ needs and urged its supporters to end their divisions. Fall also criticized political officials for retaining their salaries, political funds and allowances while blocking a budget meant to help the public.
