Senegal unrest: Calls for justice and democracy grow amid election outrage
In their latest music video, Senegalese hip hop collective Enough denounces President Macky Sall’s regime, highlighting issues the press cannot cover. Rapper Fatim voices grievances against Sall’s governance, calling for justice and democracy. Nationwide protests erupt following the postponement of elections, escalating into violence. Opposition condemns the delay as a constitutional coup, prompting ECOWAS intervention. Amid strikes and police brutality, civil disobedience gains momentum online. Enough, once Sall supporters, now challenge his rule, advocating for democracy through their music. Rights and civil society groups call on restraint with security forces accused of brutality. A charge the government denies.
