Joined by our editors to comment on the march of the opposition, Mimi Touré borrowed in derision, the famous Latin expression of Julius Caesar "Veni, vidi, vici" (I came, I saw, I won).
Except that for the former Prime Minister, the opponents came, saw a much smaller crowd than expected and far from overcoming, they then returned home (gnibi in Wolof).
On the question of the mobilization, in the same tone clamp-without laughing, the Special Envoy of Macky Sall believes that unless the berlue, the organizers had to seriously revise their objectives down by a multi-digit division. For her, this protest march is, after all, a banal but healthy democratic exercise that went off without a hitch.
On sponsorship lambasted by the opposition, Mimi Toure believes that the mode of sponsorship prescribed in Senegal is more democratic than elsewhere where presidential candidates are required to obtain the sponsorship of a defined number of elected officials. This is the case in France, where at least 500 sponsorships are required for any candidate in the presidential election. In Senegal, she continues, it is the citizens who will directly sponsor the candidates and it is a good thing, because if one had copied France, there would have been very few candidates able to fulfill this requirement.
