The official handover ceremony took place this Friday at the Primature, where outgoing Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko formally transferred responsibilities to Ahmadou Al Aminou Lo. This institutional milestone opens a new chapter in Senegal’s governance.

Attended by members of the outgoing government, senior administration officials, and key Primature staff, the ceremony unfolded with dignity and solemnity. Sonko handed over critical state documents to his successor, ensuring seamless continuity in public service delivery.

This transition occurs as authorities reaffirm their commitment to advancing ongoing reforms and enhancing government efficiency. Now in office, Ahmadou Al Aminou Lo faces the challenge of steering the government’s agenda forward while implementing national priorities.

An economist with expertise in financial matters, the new Prime Minister inherits pressing national priorities. Key focus areas include accelerating structural reforms, boosting youth employment, combating rising living costs, and strengthening the domestic industrial sector.
