Babacar Ba, in his capacity as president of the Forum du Justiciable, has vociferously condemned any maneuvers aimed at drawing a connection between Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko and the legal proceedings involving Ndiaga Seck, who has been detained on suspicion of alleged acts against nature.

In a recent public declaration, Babacar Ba emphasized that Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko, as the nation’s head of government, embodies the foundational integrity of the state’s institutions. He firmly stated that any endeavor to “blemish his reputation” or “undermine his personal credibility” is entirely unacceptable. The Forum du Justiciable’s leader asserted that the arrest of Ndiaga Seck cannot legitimately serve as a pretext for attempting to link him with the Prime Minister, especially when the clear intent is to discredit Sonko’s public office.

Ba further highlighted that such manipulative tactics, in his informed opinion, are in direct opposition to the core principles of the rule of law and should not be countenanced within Senegal’s political and legal landscape. His decisive intervention comes amidst ongoing public discourse and diverse reactions surrounding the Ndiaga Seck affair across the Senegalese public sphere.
