Senegal is heading for legislative elections on July 31st. After several rounds of negotiations, the main Senegalese opposition groups have decided to join forces to fight the upcoming elections.
The Yewwi Askan Wi coalition of opposition leader Ousmane Sonko and the Wallu Sénégal coalition of former president Abdoulaye Wade decided to join hands. They are rallying together against the APR party of President Macky Sall. The strategy of the two largest opposition coalitions is to avoid competing lists to ensure chances of winning seats. Both the parties will present candidates together on the department level. In 2017, in a similar strategy, the coalition backed by president Macky Sall came to power by winning 125 seats out of the 165.
