His rise to power followed several years of protest against French imperialism and former President Macky Sall’s attempts to consolidate power for his party. Ousmane Sonko was originally the beloved candidate of Senegal’s youth and working-class majority. He built an election campaign centred on delinking Senegal from its former coloniser by rejecting the French-controlled CFA franc currency. Over time, the focus of the 50-year-old’s campaign gradually seemed to shift from anti-imperialism to pro-electoral and constitutional democracy geared at getting Sall out. When authorities barred him from contesting in the elections, Sonko encouraged his supporters to vote for his protegé, Diomaye Faye, who catapulted to popularity. But did Sonko and Diomaye Faye abandon their anti-imperialist line? As Senegal’s newest president, Diomaye Faye’s first international visits were to meet with pro-Western leaders, such as Alassane Ouattara of Ivory Coast, Bola Ahmed Tinubu of Nigeria, and Nana Akufo-Addo of Ghana. His first visit outside of Africa was to France, where he met President Emmanuel Macron. He eventually went to the anti-imperialist bloc, where he met President Ibrahim Traoré of Burkina Faso to ask him to consider re-joining the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS).
