Keur Baka : rivalités internes au PASTEF entre deux responsables locaux
Political tensions have escalated within PASTEF in the Keur Baka commune (Kaolack department), where supporters of two figures from the presidential movement are openly vying for local leadership. These are the camp of the Pastef Keur Baka leader, Papa Déthié Diouf, and that of the Director General of the Dakar University Social Services Center (COUD), Dr. Ndéné Mbodj.
For several months, the two sides have been engaged in a battle that is both political and symbolic, each claiming the legitimacy to represent the party in this locality in the department of Kaolack.
Supporters of Papa Déthié Diouf maintain that their leader is the only legitimate representative of Pastef in Keur Baka, designated to represent the party in the municipality. They accuse their rival of attempting to impose himself through manipulative tactics against the population.
Some even go so far as to claim that Dr. Ndéné Mbodj is trying to appropriate political work that they attribute to Papa Déthié Diouf, presented as an early activist, the only one to defend Pastef in the commune of Keur Baka during difficult times.
These same supporters also denounce what they call "double playing", believing that their opponent is not fully committed to the party line, while suspecting ties with the "Diomaye President" coalition.
On the other side, Dr. Ndéné Mbodj's supporters categorically reject these accusations. They assert that their leader embodies the Pastef political project not only in Keur Baka, but also throughout the Kaolack department. For them, he remains an essential figure and the best option to drive the development of the municipality.
This increasingly visible internal rivalry highlights the positioning tensions within the party in certain localities, as the political balance is being redrawn at the national level.
