Rencontre au Palais de la coalition Diomaye Président : L'Apr dénonce une arnaque politique de haute voltige
The Chamber of elected officials of the Alliance for the Republic (APR) denounces in the strongest terms what appears to be a "real high-flying political scam" orchestrated around the meeting organized under the banner of the Diomaye President coalition.
For supporters of President Macky Sall, "the sensational announcement of 306 mayors supposedly belonging to or supporting this coalition is a political propaganda operation without any verifiable basis." They note that "to date, no credible, exhaustive, and contradictory list has been produced to justify this clearly fanciful figure, designed to artificially create the illusion of a territorial majority."
He emphasized: “The reality is quite different. Many mayors responded to this invitation believing they were being invited by the President of the Republic in the context of his institutional functions. Today, they are discovering, to their astonishment, that they have been forcibly recruited into a political coalition, transformed into founding members of a political party, and presented as future candidates for local elections, without prior consultation or consent.”
For the APR, "this political treachery constitutes an unacceptable attempt to confiscate the representation of local authorities and an unprecedented instrumentalization of the presidential function for partisan ends. By seeking to artificially create a majority of mayors, the organizers of this operation have not only attempted to deceive public opinion, but have also misled the President of the Republic himself."
The APR's Chamber of Elected Officials calls on all mayors "who have been improperly counted or manipulated" to publicly denounce this "manipulation and set the record straight." It also urges the Senegalese people "not to be fooled by this blatant political charade."
Macky Sall's supporters point out that "political legitimacy cannot be decreed. It cannot be manufactured through intimidation, manipulation, or communication tricks. It is won at the ballot box and with respect for the dignity of elected officials and the Senegalese people."
