Senegal is on the verge of an election crisis. West Africa’s main economic and political bloc ECOWAS has sent a diplomatic mission to Senegal to discuss the political situation there following a delay in its presidential election. Senegal appears to be having an identity crisis - its citizens are proud of the fact that it is considered one of west Africa's most stable democracies, and many are outraged that this reputation is now on the line. So what's going on in a nation once considered a bastion of democracy in West Africa?

Senegalese lawmakers voted late Monday (February 5) to delay this month’s presidential election until December, an unprecedented move that has sparked international concern over a country normally seen as a beacon of stability in West Africa. The bill was passed near unanimously, with 105 votes in favor and one against, after opposition deputies were forcibly removed from the chamber.

Senegal’s President has postponed the presidential election which was due to be held later this month.
In an address to the nation, Macky Sall cited a dispute involving the constitutional court over the rejection of certain candidates.
But the indefinite postponement has prompted resignations, and drawn anger from opposition groups.

Senegal is one of the most stable democracies in West Africa. Now, that’s under threat. With only three weeks to go, a law has been passed which delays elections and keeps President Macky Sall in power for ten more months. Protesters clashed with riot police outside parliament on Monday.

To the outside world, Senegal has appeared to be one of West Africa's more stable democracies, at least until now. But internally, the political scene is in turmoil. The country was supposed to be having elections in just over two weeks time, but President Macky Sall, who was due to step down, instead postponed the exercise. And that's sparked anger.
In recent years, political protests have become more common in Senegal and human rights groups have accused the country's security forces of using excessive force to crack down on dissent. While the threat of violence awaits those taking to the streets, some Senegalese are also using art to express their grievances, as DW’s Sira Thierij reports from Dakar.
