Senegal: Unions condemn 'austere' measures by Ousmane Sonko

Trade unions protested in Dakar on Wednesday against the violation of the National Pact for Social Stability, citing unfair layoffs and an inequitable pay system. The National Confederation of Senegalese Workers (CNTS) directly blamed Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko for these issues. Opposition member Thierno Sylla called for Sonko's resignation, stating that the country's economic difficulties are linked to his inability to govern effectively.
