Révision constitutionnelle : La CAPE2D plaide pour un dialogue inclusif et met en garde…
The African Patriotic Convergence for Ethics, Democracy and Development (CAPE2D – The Missionaries) calls for caution regarding discussions on a possible revision of the Constitution.
In a statement signed by its president Amadou Sidibé, the movement believes that any reform of the Fundamental Law must be conducted in a spirit of responsibility and consensus.
"The Constitution is not an ordinary text. It constitutes the fundamental pact which organizes public powers, protects individual and collective freedoms, guarantees the rights of citizens and ensures the institutional stability of our Republic," emphasizes the president of CAPE2D, recalling the central role of this text in the functioning of the State.
According to Amadou Sidibé, a constitutional reform "must meet an essential requirement: that of serving exclusively the general interest." He believes that such a process cannot be motivated by short-term political considerations and advocates for "broad national consultation" bringing together the institutions of the Republic, political parties, civil society, religious and traditional authorities, academics, and citizens.
The statement also emphasizes the importance of dialogue in the context of institutional debate. "In a mature democracy, dialogue remains the best instrument for preventing tensions and consolidating social peace," affirms CAPE2D, which believes that listening to different political and social perspectives strengthens the legitimacy of reforms.
Addressing the members of parliament from PASTEF/The Patriots, Amadou Sidibé urged them to act responsibly. "Their responsibility goes beyond the immediate interests of their political party; it involves the institutional future of Senegal," he wrote.
CAPE2D also calls on citizens to "remain vigilant in defending democratic gains", while prioritizing "calm, respect for republican laws and the rejection of all forms of violence".
