"Le patriotisme a cédé le pas au messianisme" : Fatou Kiné Diakhaté solde ses comptes avec Pastef
Fatou Kiné Diakhaté, deputy chief of staff to the President of the Republic of Senegal, Bassirou Diomaye Diakhar Faye, announced in a statement released Monday on her Facebook page her intention to join the president's future political party. This announcement comes amid the complete break between President Faye and his former ally, Ousmane Sonko.
A "solemn appeal" to disappointed activists
In her post entitled "Appeal to patriotic brothers and sisters", the deputy chief of staff affirms that she has made the choice, in full awareness, and publicly assumes her intention to join the future presidential party, in order to pursue a commitment that she says is exclusively focused on Senegal.
She invokes a quote from Frantz Fanon on "abandoned responsibilities" to justify her decision, which she presents not as a break with her ideals, but as the most faithful continuity of values such as national sovereignty, transparency in public action and the exclusive service of the general interest.
The "original" PASTEF deemed betrayed by "messianism"
The former MONCAP coordinator believes that the current PASTEF no longer reflects the one she knew, citing a real disconnect between the party's founding values and its current direction. She concludes that, in her words, patriotism has given way to messianism within the party.
Addressing directly those who no longer recognize themselves in today's PASTEF, she calls on them to become founding members of the new structure, inviting those interested to contact her directly to join the first builders of this initiative.
