Senegal Reforms Electoral Law, Opening Door for Sonko

Senegal has revised its electoral code, passing key amendments through the National Assembly on April 28, 2026.

The changes are seen as paving the way for Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko to contest future presidential polls.

Lawmakers modified Articles 29 and 30, replacing lifetime bans for certain convictions with a five-year ineligibility period after serving sentences.
The reform removes barriers that excluded Sonko from the 2024 race, making him eligible for 2029. Critics, including the FDR coalition, argue the law is tailored and may face constitutional challenges.
