Mohamed Lat Sack Diop has resigned from his position as Director of Senegal’s National Archives, citing fundamental disagreements with the current administration’s political direction. In a formal resignation letter, Diop expressed gratitude for the opportunity to serve but stated he does not wish to be associated with President Bassirou Diomaye Faye’s future governance. He emphasized a divergence in vision and principles as the primary reason for his departure, explicitly stating he doesn’t want to be held accountable for the latter half of Faye’s term. Diop reaffirmed his loyalty to former Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko and signaled support for future political change. The resignation, while acknowledging a year of dedicated service, is framed as a deliberate political break. He thanked his colleagues at the Archives for their contributions during his tenure.
