At the heart of Dakar, the Pastef party headquarters buzzed with energy this past Saturday as Ousmane Sonko, the party’s leader, addressed a packed crowd of enthusiastic supporters gathered for the membership card sales drive. The event drew an overwhelming turnout, underscoring the deep commitment of activists to the cause.
Standing before his loyal followers, Sonko shared a significant milestone: the campaign has already generated over 160 million FCFA in revenue. This impressive financial achievement reflects the collective determination of the party’s base to fuel its vision for change.
During his address, Sonko took a moment to commend the militants for their unwavering dedication. In a powerful statement in Wolof, he declared, « Dolé gi Pastef am, Pastef sax xamuko. » Translated, this phrase encapsulates the resilience and potential of the movement, signaling its readiness to challenge the status quo and drive meaningful progress in the nation.
