Politique : Diomaye Faye enregistre un nouvel allié de taille à Matam, un responsable de PASTEF claque la porte
In a statement released on October 29, 2026, in Matam, Amadou Athié cited political and personal reasons for his departure. A founding member of PASTEF/Matam, former PASTEF coordinator at the University of Thiès, and former coordinator of JPS/Matam, he affirmed that he had fulfilled his various responsibilities with loyalty, rigor, and a strong sense of duty.

To explain his decision, the former PASTEF political leader cites a growing gap between the values that motivated his initial commitment and certain practices that he says he now observes within Ousmane Sonko's party.
"When one no longer fully recognizes oneself in a line, honesty dictates that one draw the consequences," he justifies, while specifying that he is leaving PASTEF without rancor or bitterness.
But this departure does not mean a withdrawal from the political scene. Quite the contrary! Amadou Athié clearly announces his intention to put his experience, energy, and commitment at the service of the political momentum led by President Bassirou Diomaye Faye.
The former coordinator of JPS/Matam also wanted to express his gratitude to his former party comrades, particularly those from Matam, for the years of collaboration, brotherhood and activism.
Despite leaving PASTEF, Amadou Athié maintains that his commitment to Senegal, Matam, and its youth remains unwavering. "Only the framework changes, not the conviction," he concludes.
