Babacar Touré, investigative journalist and figurehead of the political opposition against the regime of Macky Sall, has established himself as one of the most influential voices in the Senegalese media landscape. Since the advent of the phenomenon Ousmane Sonko, he has distinguished himself by his fracassantes révélations, souvent liées à des affaires sensibles de l’État. The case of Adji Sarr, in which he was a central player by providing evidence and in-depth analysis, was only an illustration of his incisive and uncompromising method of work. He expressed his views on the current situation of Farba Ngom, whose deputy’s seat now seems threatened, a situation which could have significant repercussions on the country’s political balance. Taking advantage of this moment to broaden the debate, he referred to the recent appointments within the government, which have aroused a vivid disappointment among the militants of Pastef, the movement led by Ousmane Sonko. According to him, these decisions testify to a growing gap between the expectations of the militant base and the realities of the management of power. Faithful to his critical and reflective approach, Babacar Touré concluded his speech with an ambiguous but meaningful reflection: “We conquer power with our friends, but we govern with others. ” This declaration, rich in subtext, seems to sum up the tension inherent in governance in a political context where strategic alliances and compromises are often necessary to maintain fragile stability.
