The National Assembly of Senegal has officially summoned Members of Parliament for a plenary session scheduled for Tuesday, May 26, 2026, at 9:00 a.m.
According to the official parliamentary agenda, lawmakers are expected to deliberate on two major issues that could significantly shape Senegal’s current political landscape.
The first item on the agenda is the possible reinstatement of opposition figure and Member of Parliament Ousmane Sonko.
The second key matter involves the election of a new President of the National Assembly following recent political and parliamentary developments in the country.
Political observers say the upcoming parliamentary sitting is expected to be highly significant, especially amid ongoing changes within Senegal’s government and legislative structures.
The potential reinstatement of Ousmane Sonko is already attracting widespread public and political attention both within Senegal and across the West African sub-region.
Sonko remains one of the country’s most influential political figures and continues to command strong support among sections of the Senegalese population.
Lawmakers are also expected to elect a new Speaker of Parliament during the session, a move analysts believe could influence the balance of power and future parliamentary proceedings.
The leadership transition comes at a crucial time as Senegal navigates important political reforms and national governance matters.
Observers believe the outcome of the plenary session could have lasting implications for political stability, parliamentary cooperation, and governance in Senegal.
Citizens, political parties, and international observers are closely monitoring the developments ahead of the scheduled parliamentary meeting.
More details are expected to emerge as proceedings unfold in Dakar on May 26.
The National Assembly has not yet released additional information regarding possible candidates for the parliamentary leadership position or the expected procedures surrounding the deliberations. Senegal Parliament
