Against the backdrop of political upheaval and anticipation, the atmosphere at the Palace of the Republic in Dakar's Plateau District crackled with palpable energy, marking a symbolic passing of the torch on March 28th, 2024.Three days after Bassirou Diomaye Faye was declared the apparent fifth president of Senegal, he embarked on a significant courtesy visit to the outgoing president, Macky Sall, at the Palace of the Republic in the Plateau District of Dakar. The visit, held on March 28th, 2024, marked a symbolic transition of power within the West African nation. Accompanied by his close friend and confidant, Usman Sonko, a pivotal figure in Bassirou Diomaye Faye’s landslide victory, the atmosphere was charged with anticipation and respect.
Traveling in a black BMW sedan, the duo received State protection and were escorted by Presidential bikers, indicating the ceremonial significance of the occasion. Upon their arrival at the Presidential Palace, President-elect Diomaye Faye extended the first greeting to outgoing President Sall, followed by Sonko, who notably carried a notebook, perhaps indicating the gravity of the discussions to come. Despite the political tensions preceding the elections, both Diomaye Faye and Sonko approached Sall with humility and respect, acknowledging him not only as a president but also as an elder statesman.
