New senegal president

You're referring to the recent presidential election in Senegal!

On February 21, 2022, Macky Sall was re-elected as the President of Senegal, winning the election with 58.26% of the votes. He will serve a second term from December 2, 2022, to February 3, 2025.

Macky Sall, a member of the Senegalese Democratic Party (PDS), has been the President of Senegal since 2012. He was first elected in 2012 and re-elected in 2019. During his presidency, he has focused on promoting economic development, improving infrastructure, and strengthening the country's institutions.

Sall's main opponent in the 2022 election was Ousmane Sonko, a businessman and leader of the Pastef Senegal (PASTEF) party. Sonko had gained popularity among young voters and had been critical of Sall's government, accusing it of corruption and mismanagement.

The election was marked by a high turnout, with over 70% of registered voters casting their ballots. The results were announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission (CENI) on February 22, 2022.

Sall's re-election has been met with mixed reactions, with some welcoming his continued leadership and others expressing concerns about the fairness of the election and the country's political future.
