Aïssata Tall Sall’s political stand at the Taxawu Sénégal congress

Participating in the inaugural congress of Khalifa Sall’s party, Taxawu Sénégal, Aïssata Tall Sall delivered a sharp political critique of the current administration while calling for strategic cohesion within the opposition.

Addressing those in power, she stated: “These people said no, you are not the power. Already, we can see they are not people of law; they are not kings.”

A call for strategy and political intelligence

The former minister emphasized the need for unwavering determination and organized political action. “With heads held high, we must always move forward. Courage is essential, and you possess it. Intelligence is vital, and we are intelligent. However, politics requires strategy—a serious strategy for Sénégal,” she declared.

She further discussed upcoming electoral milestones, advocating for a gradual demonstration of political strength. Aïssata Tall Sall noted that after the local and legislative elections, the opposition would prove its might, eventually leading to the presidential contest.

To conclude, she shared a message of solidarity with the activists: “I wish you the best of luck and offer our prayers. You are in your rightful place alongside your comrades. We will stand by you, and together, we will strive to reclaim power.”
