Senegal Reschedules Presidential Election Amid Political Crisis

The government sets March 24 as the new election date, following widespread protests and the dissolution of the cabinet.

Senegal's presidential election is rescheduled for March 24, following a period of political turmoil and protests.
President Macky Sall dissolves the government, appointing Sidiki Kaba as the new Prime Minister to allow Amadou Ba to focus on his presidential campaign.
The Constitutional Council confirms the new election date, ending weeks of uncertainty and ensuring the vote occurs before Sall's mandate expires on April 2.
An amnesty law is passed, potentially leading to the release of political prisoners, amid concerns over its implications for accountability.
The election's rescheduling and the government's actions aim to stabilize Senegal's democracy, as the country prepares for a closely watched vote.
