Deputy thierno alassane sall unveils state deception in aser affair, implicating prime minister ousmane sonko
The prominent deputy, Thierno Alassane Sall, has publicly declared that a confidential memorandum, dated August 26, 2024, and endorsed by the former Energy Minister, Birame Souleye Diop, serves as definitive proof of systemic irregularities at the apex of the state. In a statement disseminated across his digital platforms, the president of the République des Valeurs party asserted that this confidential correspondence from August 2024 constitutes “irrefutable evidence of a state-level fabrication.”
Thierno Alassane Sall maintains that the nation’s chief executive was apprised early on of significant discrepancies concerning the administration of the Agence Sénégalaise d’Électrification Rurale (ASER). In his official communication, the parliamentarian stated that “Ousmane Sonko’s culpability is now overwhelming,” further elaborating that “the document, which has been circulating for several days, confirms that the Prime Minister was informed, as early as August 2024, of the alleged misappropriation of the initial startup capital, a portion of which was ostensibly utilized to remunerate SONAC personnel, according to the minister’s own account.”
The deputy criticized the government’s perceived inaction in the face of numerous warnings issued regarding this sensitive dossier, even preceding the intervention of financial partners and regulatory bodies. In his written address, Thierno Alassane Sall posed a critical question: “Not only did Prime Minister Sonko ignore this vital alert, but he also orchestrated a deliberate silence by proclaiming ‘zero ASER scandal.’ For whose benefit was this cover-up organized?”
Furthermore, the parliamentarian underscored that the leakage of this sensitive communication “strengthens the charge of criminal conspiracy, as identified by the Financial Judicial Pool.” He concluded with conviction that “this entire affair represents a crucial examination for our judicial system and for the executive’s widely proclaimed commitment to ‘Jub Jubal Jubbanti’ (meaning to govern with righteousness, fairness, and efficacy).”
