Gambiaj.com – (DAKAR, Senegal) – A Dakar court has rejected a request to strip former Senegalese Prime Minister Amadou Ba and former Budget Minister Birima Mangara of their parliamentary immunity, dealing a blow to efforts by the public prosecutor to pursue legal action against them. Amadou Ba, who served as prime minister under former President Macky Sall and was the ruling coalition’s unsuccessful candidate in the March 2024 presidential election, is reportedly implicated in a case related to the expropriation of land for public use. “Freedom of expression is not negotiable,” he declared, condemning the “arbitrary and unjustified arrests of political opponents.” He also denounced the recent revocation of Barthélemy Dias’s mandate as mayor of Dakar, calling it “a serious attack on the popular will and the very foundation of local democracy.” Ba’s remarks signal his continued role as a vocal opposition figure in Senegalese politics, even as legal and political uncertainties loom over his future.
