Senegal’s upcoming departmental and municipal elections are facing concerns due to the delayed updating of voter lists. Ndiaga Sylla, president of the Dialogue citoyen, has raised alarms about the lack of opportunity for citizens to register or modify their electoral information, just three months before candidate registration opens. This situation, he argues, potentially violates fundamental rights enshrined in both the Senegalese Constitution and international human rights laws. Sylla is calling on competent authorities to clarify the situation and ensure compliance with the electoral code, warning of potential legal action if necessary. The Dialogue citoyen aims to protect voting rights and uphold the legal framework surrounding the elections. Failure to address this issue could compromise the effective exercise of the right to vote for Senegalese citizens.
