« Lui c'est lui, moi c'est moi » : Me Doudou Ndoye explique la cohabitation Diomaye-Sonko
While speculation about possible tensions at the highest levels of government fuels public debate, lawyer Doudou Ndoye calls for a more nuanced perspective. A guest on the iRadio program "Le Jury du Dimanche," he argues that the differences between the head of state and his prime minister are simply part of the normal functioning of political life.
In response to comments suggesting differences between Bassirou Diomaye Faye and Ousmane Sonko, lawyer Doudou Ndoye was adamant: there is nothing abnormal about two leaders expressing different views. "They are not mere figures of wood. They are human beings," he insisted. According to him, each political leader has their own vision, philosophy, and interpretation of events. Seeking absolute uniformity would, in his view, be contrary to the very nature of public action.
To support his argument, the lawyer invoked French political history, particularly the tumultuous relationship between François Mitterrand and Michel Rocard. He also recalled Laurent Fabius's famous line: "He's him, I'm me." This was a way of illustrating that the coexistence of different viewpoints at the highest levels of government is neither new nor necessarily dangerous.
Beyond the contrasts in style, Mr. Doudou Ndoye emphasizes the essential point: convergence towards the common good. "It is the commonalities that must be sought to achieve peace, and not the differences," he advises, urging people to move beyond alarmist interpretations and focus on government action.
The lawyer also pointed out that political alliances are never static, citing the trajectories of Léopold Sédar Senghor and Abdou Diouf to demonstrate that divisions are an integral part of history. However, he clarified that as long as the actors respect the Constitution and ethical principles, these differences do not constitute a threat to the nation.
"Let everyone defend their vision within the framework of the institutions. Let everyone defend their nation, according to what the Constitution and morality allow," concluded the Sunday guest.
