The trial and conviction of Senegal’s opposition chief has sparked lethal riots in one among Africa’s most secure democracies.
The federal government of President Macky Sall denies the prosecution of Ousmane Sonko was politically motivated. Cleared of rape prices, he was discovered responsible of “corrupting youth” – which he denies. His supporters say it’s to cease him working for President in 2024.
Why has the unrest been so widespread? What’s the danger of extra instability?
