Descendants of Serigne Touba take legal action against Ousmane Sonko

Ousmane Sonko’s statements during his recent gathering in Touba have sparked significant backlash. A coalition representing the descendants of Serigne Touba now intends to pursue legal recourse against the former prime minister. The group claims Sonko alleged that diverted public funds are being distributed in Touba, a claim that has drawn sharp condemnation from the religious community.
According to informed sources, the coalition will formally lodge a complaint in the coming days, with further details expected to be unveiled during a scheduled press conference this week. The legal grounds for the action and the specific allegations will be clarified in the announcement, insiders reveal.
For now, neither Ousmane Sonko nor his representatives have issued a public response to these developments. The political and religious tensions surrounding this case continue to escalate, with stakeholders awaiting further clarification from all parties involved.
