Forçage à l'Assemblée nationale pendant la Pentecôte : Les graves soupçons de Thierno Alassane Sall
Thierno Alassane Sall's press conference regarding the 37 billion CFA franc affair did not only address the alleged financial transactions linked to the rural electrification project. The President of the Republic of Values also raised serious questions about the political context surrounding certain recent decisions at the highest levels of government.
Referring to the controversial appearance of the Speaker of the National Assembly, which took place under circumstances that sparked heated debate among the public and the political class, the MP believes this event deserves to be examined in light of current legal proceedings. "I fear that forcing the appearance at the National Assembly during the Pentecost weekend stems from a desire to protect himself," Thierno Alassane Sall told reporters on Friday, June 12, 2026. While not claiming to have direct evidence linking him to the 37 billion CFA franc case, the opposition leader nevertheless asserts that questions remain. "We are all wondering. Is there a connection between this controversial appearance and this case, or other cases? Time will tell," he declared. According to the MP, the ongoing investigations should determine whether certain political decisions may have been influenced by the prospect of future legal proceedings or revelations.
"Some people made this treachery possible."
Beyond the suspicions he expresses, Thierno Alassane Sall believes that responsibility in the 37 billion CFA franc case is not limited to those directly involved in the financial flows revealed by the Spanish legal proceedings. According to him, certain individuals within the state apparatus allowed this situation to occur. "As I have always said, there are people within the Senegalese state who made this wrongdoing possible," he stated. The president of the Republic of Values believes that the investigations must now trace the entire chain of responsibility, from administrative decisions to the financial transactions in question.
"Heads will roll."
Despite his criticism of the slow pace of national procedures, Thierno Alassane Sall believes that the evidence obtained through the Spanish justice system marks a turning point in the case. According to him, the bank documents examined now make it possible to trace part of the funds intended for the electrification of 1,600 Senegalese villages. "Today, at least, we are beginning to see where the 37 billion went," he stated.
The MP maintains that the disbursed funds did not primarily benefit the populations targeted by the project, but rather various private actors with no direct connection to the initial objective of the funding. Convinced that further revelations could follow, he concluded with a warning: "If the investigation proceeds as planned, heads will roll."
