BLOCAGE DE LA LFR : MIMI TOURÉ MET EN GARDE ET RAPPELLE LES PRÉROGATIVES CONSTITUTIONNELLES DE DIOMAYE FAYE
Faced with the deadlock on the supplementary budget law, Aminata Touré is invoking constitutional arguments. The former Prime Minister asserts that Bassirou Diomaye Faye has legal means at his disposal to guarantee the continuity of the state and allow public projects to proceed, despite the parliamentary impasse.
During her press conference held on Monday, October 26, 2026, Mimi Touré asserted that the Head of State had the means to act if the situation required it. "The President of the Republic has all the legal means to ensure that Senegal continues to function and that the approved projects continue to be implemented," she declared, suggesting that the Head of State could fully exercise his constitutional prerogatives in the face of the deadlock.
This warning comes amid tensions surrounding the adoption of the Finance Law, which its defenders believe is necessary to adjust public spending and to continue the State's commitments.
According to Aminata Touré, members of parliament cannot, through their position, compromise the functioning of the country. The Senegalese Constitution entrusts the President of the Republic with the responsibility of guaranteeing the proper functioning of institutions, in accordance with Article 42.
However, the President's room for maneuver in budgetary matters remains framed by constitutional and legislative procedures.

Et tout les outils constitutionnels sont à sa disposition pour assumer l’ordre républicain dans l’intérêt supérieur de la nation est au-dessus de lui-même.
À bon entendeur tant pis!
