Ndiaga Seck denies Ousmane Sonko had knowledge of his private life
Ndiaga Seck, currently detained, has made a striking claim during his judicial hearing: Ousmane Sonko had no awareness of his personal affairs, including his sexual orientation. His statement has sparked fresh debate over the political and social consequences of this unfolding legal matter.
New details have emerged following Ndiaga Seck’s transfer to custody in Linguère, where he was brought in by local police on Monday morning. During his interrogation, the 51-year-old political figure insisted that Ousmane Sonko remained uninformed about his private affairs. In his own words, expressed in Wolof, he stated: « Xamul woon li may dund »* — a direct translation meaning, « He knew nothing of my private life. »
