African Union urges 'dialogue' after Senegal election postponed
Monday 5 February 2024 - 08:56

The chairman of the African Union commission, Moussa Faki Mahamat, on Monday urged Senegal to resolve its “political dispute through consultation, understanding and dialogue”, after violent clashes erupted following the postponement of this month’s presidential election.

Faki called on the authorities to “organise the elections as quickly as possible, in transparency, in peace and national harmony” in a post on X, formerly Twitter, after President Macky Sall announced that the February 25 polls had been indefinitely postponed.
