« La reconnaissance n'est pas une dette politique » : Malick Gakou recadre Madiambal Diagne
Former minister and president of the Grand Party, El Hadji Malick Gakou, felt compelled to set the record straight regarding the claims of journalist Madiambal Diagne, who alleges he saved him from imprisonment. A close ally of Ousmane Sonko and the Pastef-Les Patriotes movement, the politician took to his Facebook account to separate personal gratitude from partisan commitment. "Madiambal Diagne claims to have saved me from prison. This statement warrants a review of the facts," he stated from the outset.
Looking back on the legal and political ordeals he went through under the old regime, Malick Gakou clarifies the context of this affair: "In January 2018, I was the victim of a plot hatched by the regime of President Macky Sall, on the basis of facts never proven and devoid of any foundation."
While he does not deny the press boss's attitude at that precise moment, he puts its political significance into perspective: "I recognize that Madiambal was by my side at that time, himself, like other journalists, being convinced of the existence of a political conspiracy directed against me. I did not fail to thank him for it."
“Gratitude is not a political debt.”
For the leader of the Grand Party, this past support should not, however, tie his hands or influence his current positions. "However, gratitude is not a political debt, much less a blank check that I should give him for all his future stances or actions," the former minister insists.
Asserting his complete independence of mind and consistency, Malick Gakou insists on the firmness of his guiding principle: “My political commitment is not negotiable based on personal recognition. I remain free in my convictions, faithful to my principles, and responsible for my political choices.” He concludes his statement with a scathing rebuttal of the journalist’s remarks against his political ally: “I reaffirm unequivocally: I do not believe these statements concerning President Ousmane Sonko.”

Baye Ndiaye a raison, le mystique de Sonko est très fort. Les hommes plus intelligents et plus compétents se font allégeance au gourou politicien le plus nul de l'histoire du Sénégal. Il y a anguille sous roche.
