La libération Karim Wade ou la mal gouvernance institutionnalisée
La libération de Karim Wade n’est plus un sujet de spéculation persistante ; elle est désormais une réalité regrettable. L’annonce de la libération de celui que la justice sénégalaise a présenté, depuis 2012, comme le plus grand criminel financier du pays, est symptomatique d’une pratique inique qui continue de causer une mortelle h
Macky se cache derrière les Cinq Sages, mais les sénégalais n’ont pas l’intelligence d’un zèbre !
Le régime de Macky Sall vient de montrer à la face du monde que les projets politiques – même les plus nobles et les plus purs – peuvent être détournés, voire confisqués de manière éhontée.

Senegal – Expert Briefing on the July 2017 legislative elections

Last week, Burkina Faso seemed a bright spot in the troubled Sahel region of Africa. Little known and rarely discussed, the country found its way into international headlines after a dramatic popular uprising in October 2014 put an end to President Blaise Compaoré's 27-year reign. Subsequent events demonstrated a strong popular commitment to democ
Plagued by violence, corruption and economic hardship, and exposed to a long, insecure border with Afghanistan, Tajikistan is under dangerous stress. President Rahmon's autocratic undermining of the 1997 peace agreement is fostering Islamic radicalisation. As Tajikistan's growing fragility impacts a brittle region, the country must become a conflic
L’affaire Lamine Diack et le financement de la vie publique au Sénégal
Le vendredi 18 décembre dernier, le journal français "Le Monde'' avait informé que l'ancien Président de IAAF, Lamine Diack, soutenait devant les enquêteurs Français que l’argent russe aurait servi à financer la campagne électorale de l’actuel Président du Sénégal, Macky Sall, en 2012. Deux jours plus tard, le même journal présente
