Ousmane Sonko to address press after new government formation

Ousmane Sonko, leader of the PASTEF-Les Patriotes party, will hold a press conference this Tuesday, June 2, 2026, at 5:00 PM. The event will take place at the Résidence Serigne Abass Sall, located across from the Police School in Dakar. This highly anticipated announcement follows the formation of the Al Aminou government and arrives amid heightened political tensions in Senegal.

Since his removal from the position of Prime Minister in May, Sonko has been at the center of a storm of institutional upheaval. The political landscape remains volatile, with growing public interest in the direction of the new administration. The press conference is expected to shed light on Sonko’s stance and the future strategies of the Patriotes du Sénégal in this evolving scenario.
