More than 20 dead, Senegal has descended into chaos since the conviction of Ousmane Sonko for youth corruption in the case against Adji Sarr. For Tariq Ramadan, this situation was caused by President Macky Sall and his desire to get rid of his political opponents.
“Senegal is sinking into violence through the fault of a President and a power that refuses to play the game of democracy and transparency. If we must ask the people not to fall into the trap of #violence, we must advise the military to refuse to obey the orders of a power imposing on them to turn against their Senegalese sisters and brothers. The people need the courage to resist, and the military the courage to disobey. Courage Senegal… you are in our hearts and in our prayers”he posted.
