Cheikh Oumar Diagne sur la renégociation des contrats pétroliers : « Ce que Ousmane Sonko a dit, ce n'est pas vrai »
At a press conference held a few days ago, Ousmane Sonko announced the review of several oil and gas agreements, including the resumption of the Yakaar-Teranga gas block in the coming weeks "without spending a single franc".
During a broadcast on the YouTube channel Fafa TV, Cheikh Oumar Diagne deemed the Prime Minister's statements false. According to the former head of general services at the Presidency, who was dismissed just days after an interview on the same YouTube channel, Sonko's remarks are far from the truth.
"For me, that's nonsense. There's no contract you can get back without paying money. To say otherwise is trying to deceive the ignorant. It's to galvanize these people," he said.
Even better, according to Cheikh Oumar Diagne, the contract Ousmane Sonko is referring to (the Yakaar-Teranga gas block, editor's note) was not taken over by the Senegalese state. "They withdrew. They wrote (to the state) to inform them that they do not have the means to develop the block, since they do not trust Senegal's way of working," reveals Cheikh Oumar Diagne.
He also criticizes Ousmane Sonko and the government for unnecessary communication regarding certain oil contracts. "They weren't recovered as announced, but these contracts had expired. It's normal to award them to others."
