During the inauguration of Pastef’s new headquarters in Mbacké, party president Ousmane Sonko issued a strong appeal for unity among his political leadership. He cautioned officials against internal rivalries, emphasizing their potential to undermine the party’s momentum. Addressing the cadres directly, the Pastef leader stressed that maintaining cohesion was, in his view, the sole assurance for success in future endeavors.
Sonko acknowledged that individual ambition was not inherently negative, but he warned it becomes detrimental when it jeopardizes collective unity and the effectiveness of the party’s actions. Confident in his movement’s widespread popular support, Ousmane Sonko asserted that Pastef remained robust, bolstered by the backing of at least 70% of the populace. Consequently, he believed the party faced no significant external adversaries. For Sonko, the primary threat originated from within Pastef itself, explaining his emphasis on the individual and collective responsibility of its officials.
The President of the National Assembly then urged officials to join forces and confront future challenges as a united front. He also warned that should this unity falter, he would not hesitate to assume his responsibilities and make the necessary decisions, a statement that hinted at potential sanctions or internal restructuring.
