Thiès is rolling out the red carpet for Ousmane Sonko this Sunday, with party officials working tirelessly to orchestrate a memorable reception that will bolster the ongoing membership drive.

Ousmane Sonko continues his political tour this Sunday with a highly anticipated stop in Thiès. The announcement was made by Birame Souleye Diop, former Minister of Energy and Petroleum, during a gathering with party activists.

The Rail Capital is gearing up to welcome the Pastef leader amid an active campaign to sell party membership cards—a strategic move by the ruling party to expand its influence nationwide.

Yesterday’s visit to Dakar’s suburbs saw Sonko greeted by a massive turnout of supporters and activists, reaffirming their allegiance to the party. Now, Thiès is preparing to match that enthusiasm.

Local Pastef leaders are already mobilizing resources to ensure a reception that reflects the significance of this visit. Sonko’s presence is expected to energize the membership campaign, strengthening the party’s grassroots presence ahead of future challenges.

As in past appearances, Sonko is likely to engage directly with activists, address pressing political issues, and outline Pastef’s vision for the coming years.
