Pape Djibril Fall face aux députés : Le rappel aux réalités économiques et l'hommage à Cheikh Diba
MP Pape Djibril Fall believes that Senegal is not experiencing an institutional crisis, contrary to what some observers and political figures suggest. According to the parliamentarian, the real challenges facing the country are primarily economic and social in nature.
Speaking during the plenary session of the National Assembly's Budgetary Policy Debate, he recalled that Senegalese institutions had demonstrated their strength throughout the democratic process that led to the 2024 change of power. "It is these same institutions that enabled Pastef to come to power," he emphasized, thus rejecting arguments questioning their functioning. According to him, institutions are merely a reflection of the women and men who embody them. "Institutions are only what the men and women who bring them to life make of them," he affirmed, stressing the responsibility of political actors in the proper functioning of the State.
According to the political leader, the national debate would benefit from focusing more on the economic issues that are a daily concern for Senegalese people. "The real problem is the economy," he insisted. In his view, the urgent task is less about examining institutional mechanisms than about defining a clear strategy for economic recovery.
The MP is therefore calling on the authorities, the political class, and experts to engage in a thorough reflection on the development model that Senegal wishes to adopt in order to revive growth, create jobs, and improve the living conditions of the population. "The real question is which economic model we intend to rely on to recover," he stated.
Addressing the criticism leveled at the Minister of Finance and Budget, Pape Djibril Fall expressed his support for Cheikh Diba. He described him as a competent, hardworking man deeply committed to his mission in service to the state. According to him, the minister does not deserve to be the target of what he considers unfounded attacks.
“Sheikh Diba is an honest and hardworking man who should not respond to false accusations,” he declared. Using a vivid metaphor, the MP asserted that the insults directed at the Minister of Finance could not damage his credibility. “The toad’s venom never reaches the crocodile,” he quipped, urging the minister to remain fully focused on the country’s urgent economic needs.
