Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) has expressed concerns over the circumstances that led to the postponement of the presidential election in Senegal and urged authorities in the country to set a new date.

The elections initially scheduled for February 25, were  indefinitely postponed by president  of  Senegal, Machy Sall  on Saturday, saying he has cancelled  the relevant electoral law, citing a dispute with  the candidates list.

Sall said he signed a decree abolishing a November 2023 measure that had the original election date.

The announcement comes after the Constitutional Council last month excluded some prominent opposition members from the list of candidates.

In a statement yesterday, the ECOWAS Commission urged the Senegalese authorities to expedite action on the process in order to set a new date for the election.

The commission urged the entire political class to prioritise dialogue and collaboration for ” transparent, inclusive and credible elections.”

“The ECOWAS Commission salutes President Machy Sall for upholding his earlier decision not to run for another term and encourages him to continue to defend and protect Senegal’s long-standing democratic tradition,” the statement said.
