Senegal's Bassirou Diomaye Faye: Africa's Youngest Elected President | Vantage with Palki Sharma
Senegal went to polls on Sunday. The winner seems to be Bassirou Diomaye Faye. He was the candidate backed by popular opposition leader Ousmane Sonko. Faye is a former tax inspector turned politician. He spent the last few years as Sonko's right hand man. He was also in prison up till 12 days ago. He was arrested last year after Senegal's ruling party cracked down on the opposition. Sonko was also arrested and barred from contesting in the presidential election. So he put up Faye as his proxy. Faye says he is happy to be Sonko's proxy. Faye is set to become Africa's youngest ever elected President.
