DAKAR - A dialogue commission organized by Senegal’s president Macky Sall has proposed June 2 as the new presidential election date.
The two-day dialogue in Dakar this week was boycotted by most opposition candidates who would have run in the postponed Feb. 25 elections, because they insisted on Sall’s departure at the end of his term.
Macky Sall will make the final decision on the commission’s recommendation.
Sall has said he will ask Senegal’s top court to choose a temporary president if an election is not held before his term ends on April 2.
