Macky Sall’s political party, the Alliance for the Republic (APR), has strongly criticized a proposed constitutional revision currently under consideration by the Senegalese National Assembly. The APR argues the revision is unnecessary and politically motivated, directly targeting the current ruling majority led by Ousmane Sonko. The party highlighted the country’s deteriorating socio-economic conditions, including declining purchasing power, high unemployment, and frequent power outages, asserting the government is ignoring pressing issues. APR officials claim the proposed changes divert attention from these urgent social needs and represent a “political maneuver.” They further denounce the process as lacking sufficient democratic debate and national consensus, calling it a “grave violation of democratic rules.” The party emphasizes the absence of broad consultation with political forces, civil society, academics, and citizens, and points to existing institutional inconsistencies.
