Senegal's octogenarian president, Abdoulaye Wade, is pulling all the stops to continue as president of that country, even though some argue that the constitution bars him from doing so. He tried to amend the constitution to do so but protesters forced him to change his mind. Now the people want him to go. I support the people. My Wade must go. He has done many good things for the country and it is time for him to go and make way for a new leader. He is not the only one who can rule Senegal. In fact, he is currently even to old to be an effective leader. He must leave. Thank God the people of Senegal have the guts to demonstrate against him. Unlike the people of a country like Cameroon who are being humiliated daily by Biya who has been in power far longer than Mr. Wade, the people of Senegal are standing up to end the dictatorial tendencies of African leaders. That is a sign of maturity. The people of Senegal must not allow Wade to stay.Monday, July 25, 2011

The difference between Cameroon and Senegal in effect in that Cameroonians still want President Paul Biya to stay in power while it is not the case in senegal for Wade. So do not compare both situations.
