The postponement of the elections in Senegal opens a new crisis of uncertainty and indignation. The president will govern 10 months longer than expected.

The session was plagued by incidents and concluded with the evacuation of the chamber, by members of the Gendarmerie. The Government has cut off the mobile internet connection throughout the country and has withdrawn the license of a private television station in a new curtailment of freedoms that attempts to quell the wave of protests that began on Sunday. The dispute between both sides revolves around the list of 20 candidates approved by the Constitutional Court on January 20.
