Senegal’s opposition party and civil society groups have called for three days of nationwide protests starting on Monday.
They said the arrest and charges against opposition leader Ousmane Sonko are politically motivated, and have also denounced violence employed by security forces to crush the growing anger.

The staple dish for most families is fish and rice. Meats and vegetables are typically stewed or marinated in herbs and spices, and then poured over rice or grain-like couscous, or eaten with bread. Gourmet ice cream, a step up.
You know my country
@Babacar Drame
I have two hands and a lot of interest.
@Susan Diane Howell I see
France must leave its that simple. We will solve our own problems.
@TROJAN HORSE yess
*JEWS*
LOL
Two different versions of declaration of the interior minister what he says in french is far different of what he says in Wolof (our local language) in french he tries to show that the situation was under control and treat us youth as terrorists to distract the international community from what really happens . In Wolof he tries to calm the youth and invokes parents responsibilities. WE ARE NOT TERRORISTS
@Babacar Drame No, the people of Senegal are not serious for the future of the country and people,look at Ivory coast the same thing happening.
@Watching the Hawks The Rovolution starts right now in Senegal.. No Rete ret No Surrender.
@Watching the Hawks that’s why we are protesting to end this for good.
It’s a shame this is happening. I’m empathetic to your country. America is almost the same way.
The big liar the world ever seen the minister is the worst person I’ve ever seen.
Do you want peace? kick out france
I do agree with you
they can’t
France must leave Africa, they are a destabilizing force. They are behind the problem in Mali, Chad and Central African republic
Every corruption, chinese are behind it
If France leaves, the violence will be overwhelming
France is the source of trouble in many african countries
Death to Europe
@Foundational Black American how about Delete the Elite? We the working class people scratching a living in all countries all colours and religion need to unite against the greedy establishment.

If you want To be free kick out french,
France’s criminality in Africa is gradually being exposed. The moment France is out of the African continent, the sooner real development starts. France has refused to decolonize.
if you can
@sneksnekitsasnek it can happen ,may take some time but it can happen or atleast a disruption in French culture
💓
Macky must go
Il faut surtout foutre le feu dans ces grande surface sionistes
We are sick and tired of France’s economic and political terrorism in Senegal !! We are ready to die to liberate ourselves
Sonkoforpresident

🇸🇳🇸🇳🇸🇳🇸🇳✅
And then the JNIM terrorists will take advantage of the vacuum and invade
You really don’t know Senegalese people. We DO NOT SURRENDER ! IT does not matter if it is the government or anything else trying to castrate us
@Hustler Nature
Hahaha
If the government falls
There will be various groups fighting for power
It will be like syria
@Precious Do some research there is no such things as “various groups” in Senegal. And the government won’t fall only the Corrupted people who are running it gonna fall.
Free sonko house
Macky france degage
Thanks for sharing the Information
Days5 Senegal protest against:the president manipulated by westerns governments, we want the release of politicians who have been injustly arrested. We want to hold peaceful manifestation but the governments pays thugs to kill the population and accuse the population of terrorists so that the international opignon does not know what is happening in Senegal
Ok…what countries aren’t having protest lately.
Free Sénégal
This situation is world wide, not only there. The rich control everything and then call the people derogatory names. It’s not fair. This sotuation has been going on for centuries. What’s going on, still in century 21? The world has not learned a lesson? Taking countries resources of wealth for their own, and enslaving the poor. When is this planet inhabitants going to learn to work together with all resources? To share the resources with every human being? Thousands of people treat animals like human beings, why not with each other? Revolutions, every scholar and non, know this principle, that when people are slaves to the abusers, a day will come to revolutionize. They fight. Animals fight for their own benefits, why not humans who have a God given, conscious?
Idlots .
Sounds like America right now.the irony.
It all your fault protests
He is a decent human being Mr sonko. And he is anti Neocoloniazsm that’s why french joined with Senegalese government to plotted against him for French intrest, not even Senegalese intrest the youths are defending their features with their visioner leaders and young man.
so ironic….all these .young Senegalese saying” france degage “, but everyday they take a boat to try reaching european continent 🤣
Ils ne vont pas en france
But they r not going France
The targeting of French property in the demonstrations in Senegal is justifiable. All French property in Africa must be free.
U Africa’s sell your country den want to turn around and blame French
France go Home
Vive Sonko 💪💪
So u destroy your country to show us u want democracy…..enforce the laws…protests peacefully
If it’s African and speaks french…you know the nation will collasp at any moment
Looks like Portland Oregon…
This is good for them France is the reason they is no peace in our country that’s why we need change in our country they think they will continue to controlling us is enough we need our freedom free Senegal 🇸🇳✊🏿
Blame central bankers in England and CILLA Con VALLEE, Washington DC are Global and domestic terrorist who are not supported in America
The president has failed
What a shame🙈
$Freesénégal
The only way is to Kick FRANCE out! Nothing good comes from their presents on our CONTINENT! There will always be chaos if France is there.
😭😭😭😭😭
Our government is violating our rights and liberties. They want to istablish a dictorial regime and we the SOVEREIGN PEOPLE of SENEGAL won let that happen in our country. Justice must be served.
The Senegalese president have to go too.
Will the opposition coming into power change anything? Its going to be the same roller coaster ride… Nothing get better on that continent. Am sorry to say. looting your neighbors will not hurt the government.
Another French speaking country in chaos!
🇸🇳Must remove macky sall
Wearing foreign made clothes and complaining of unemployment
Senegal still a French colony in all but name.
Why are only Franch speaking countries are in choicest in Africa?
In my opinion the answer is simply. It’s because France is a hypocrite country.
