| Senegal's president has confirmed that he will stand down when his term expires on 2 April. | |
| In a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, President Sall noted that a "national dialogue" had called for the election to be held on 2 June. | |
| This date has not been confirmed. | |
| "My departure is absolutely firm" he said. | |
| It’s unclear who would lead the country after Mr Sall steps down. | |
| The election was due on 25 February but the president tried to delay it until December, so that disputes over the eligibility of other candidates could be resolved. | |
| This led to violent protests across the normally stable West African country. | |
| But the country's top court said the delay was unconstitutional, and called for the election to be held "as soon as possible". | |
