Africa Daily - Een podcast door BBC World Service
After a turbulent few years of disputes and protests, and accusations that President Macky Sall was trying to hang on to office, Senegal is holding its presidential election on March 24.Speaking to the BBC this week, the president refused to apologise for his attempt in February to postpone the vote by several months - saying he'd always acted according to the constitution and that he 'did nothing wrong'.He decision led to violent protests, but was reversed after Senegal’s top court blocked the postponement.So, will these elections be a turning point for Senegal and can the country have a peaceful transition of power?Presenter: Alan KasujjaGuests: James Copnall and Professor Mamadou Bodian
