Crise des bourses : Le Parti Socialiste dénonce les « propos irresponsables » de certains députés
The Socialist Party (PS) is monitoring the situation of Senegalese students mobilized to demand the payment of their scholarships with vigilance and indignation. The Greens stated that "these demonstrations are not mere protests: they express legitimate, just, and fundamental demands. Every student has the right to a decent education, supported by the State, within the framework of public service."
Aminata Mbengue Ndiaye's colleagues continued: "The State cannot shirk its responsibilities. Scholarships are neither a luxury nor a privilege: they are a right, an instrument of social justice, a guarantor of equal opportunities and the future of Senegal. To call this right into question is to attack the future of the Nation."
The Socialists strongly condemn the "irresponsible remarks" made by some members of parliament calling for the abolition of student grants. In their view, these words are indecent, contemptuous, and dangerous. They remind everyone that elected officials are representatives of the people; they must remember that the public services they benefit from (healthcare, education, security) are funded by national solidarity.
They emphasize that these same rights have enabled generations of managers and leaders to be educated. They believe that turning their backs on students today is turning their backs on the Senegal of tomorrow. They further state: “The country’s youth deserve respect, consideration, and protection. Starving, humiliating, or devaluing students weakens national cohesion and jeopardizes the country’s future. Governing is not about imposing unjust restrictions; governing is about guaranteeing the rights of all and assuming one’s responsibilities.”
The Socialist Party demands the immediate payment of scholarships, an end to contemptuous and provocative rhetoric, and the opening of a sincere and transparent dialogue with student representatives. It believes it is time for the State to demonstrate its respect for its commitments and the values of the Republic.
Aminata Mbengue Ndiaye's colleagues emphasize that Senegal is built with its youth, not against them. Any failure to uphold this responsibility constitutes an affront to social justice, equal opportunity, and the future of the country. They therefore reaffirm their commitment to the students and call upon the State and its representatives to act with dignity, responsibility, and courage.
