"Inédit" : Thierno Alassane dénonce le traitement des soldats en pleine tournée présidentielle
While President Bassirou Diomaye Faye has been on an economic tour of the south of the country since Saturday, a dissenting voice has emerged. MP Thierno Alassane Sall denounces what he calls serious shortcomings in the treatment of troops on the ground, seeing it as a sign of a deep economic crisis.
In a striking statement, the leader of the Republic of Values / Réewum Ngor (RV) party emphasized a paradox between the security pomp surrounding the presidential visit and the living conditions of the soldiers.
According to Thierno Alassane Sall, the Defense and Security Forces (FDS) deployed in the southern zone are facing unusual financial difficulties. "The supreme commander of the armed forces is in the southern zone, under the high protection of troops whose professionalism, dedication, sense of sacrifice, and responsibility we collectively commend," he began by recalling.
However, the MP deplores a situation which he considers alarming: "Yet, these troops, as I recently reminded the National Assembly, have not, as of this December 21, received their food due since the beginning of the month, nor other bonuses such as the PJI (daily operation bonus) and the PF (free loan)."
For the former minister and presidential candidate, these payment delays are not isolated incidents but a symptom of strained budget management. He asserts that this precarious situation "has tended to become the norm in recent months" and constitutes an "unprecedented" event in Senegal's recent history.
"The elders, who served under President Abdou Diouf, do not remember such delays. This is a sign of difficult times ahead for all Senegalese," the parliamentarian concluded, casting a shadow over the outcome of this leg of the presidential tour in Casamance.

On devrait sortir une loi qui interdit de parler sur l’armée et sur les ethnies sous peine d’une condamnation.
Thierno on doit lui mettre les points sur les I
Il est compl et tement petdu
Il ne sait pas comment s’opposer, il raconte n’importe quoi n’importe comment.
On sent qu’il est aigri et rancunier.
À ce rythme il n’aura rien en politique.
