Ousmane Sonko and PASTEF strengthen their presence in Jolof with new departmental headquarters

The PASTEF-Les Patriotes party has successfully wrapped up a dynamic two-day political outreach initiative across the Jolof region. This extensive tour, spearheaded by party leader Ousmane Sonko and accompanied by Minister of State Habib Sy, along with numerous national executives and coalition allies, spanned all 19 communes within the Linguère department. Key stops included Dahra, Barkédji, Sagatta, and Yang-Yang, demonstrating a comprehensive engagement strategy.

The impactful event featured crucial interactions with local religious and customary leaders, alongside direct engagement with the party’s foundational structures, encompassing youth movements, women’s groups, and executive cadres. Following this significant mobilization, the local party leadership formally outlined its strategic roadmap for upcoming phases. A pivotal moment was the official inauguration of the departmental headquarters and the commencement of membership card distribution, signaling PASTEF’s concerted effort to strengthen its grassroots network and foster closer ties within the department’s villages and neighborhoods.

In parallel with these internal organizational efforts, local political officials are extending an open invitation for unity, urging militants, sympathizers, and political stakeholders from other affiliations to join their overarching vision for territorial development and progress.
