During the inauguration of Pastef’s new headquarters in Mbacké, the party’s president, Ousmane Sonko, issued a powerful appeal for solidarity among his political leaders. He cautioned them against internal discord that could undermine the party’s momentum. Addressing the party’s officials directly, the Pastef leader underscored the critical importance of maintaining cohesion, which he considers the sole guarantee for success in upcoming political battles.
While acknowledging that personal ambition is not inherently negative, Sonko warned that it becomes detrimental when it jeopardizes collective unity and the party’s operational effectiveness. Confident in Pastef’s broad popular base, Ousmane Sonko asserted that the party remains robust due to the backing of at least 70% of the population. Consequently, he believes Pastef has no formidable external adversaries to fear. For him, the primary threat originates from within the party itself, prompting his emphasis on the individual and collective responsibility of its cadres.
The President of the National Assembly urged officials to unite and confront future challenges as a cohesive force. He also made it clear that should this unity falter, he would not hesitate to assume his responsibilities and make the necessary decisions, a statement that suggests potential sanctions or internal restructuring could be on the horizon.
