«Il faut abroger la loi d'amnistie et on saura…» : Le coup de gueule de Macky Sall
If those currently in power want to shed light on what happened during the political and judicial events (2021-2024) that resulted in dozens of deaths in Senegal, they will have to repeal the amnesty law. This is essentially what Macky Sall, who is accused of being responsible for more than 80 deaths, emphasized.
"If people want to revisit the events, there are ways. The amnesty law must be repealed. Right now, the files are coming out. We will know who is who, who did what," he declared this Monday, in front of members of civil society.
For Macky Sall, in this case, the head of state cannot be accused, particularly regarding the loss of human lives.
"You can't accuse the President of the Republic, who is at the top of the pyramid, who has defended the Republic, and say that he is responsible for murders. What murders is he responsible for? Did the President give anyone the order to go and kill young people? So this is a story that is contrary to reality," he asserted.
He believes such statements are completely out of touch with reality. He even denounces a smear campaign against him.
“But as a politician, I accept all of this. It’s part of the game. You have to be able to handle all these attacks, whether verbal or sometimes even physical. It’s part of the rules of the game in politics. I am prepared enough to deal with this kind of event,” he said.
For Macky Sall, it is in Senegal's best interest today to turn the page and move forward. "Many countries have not been able to recover in similar situations. Fortunately, our country has overcome this painful period. I think we must look ahead and try to move forward," he suggests.
