Several hundred people demonstrated in the Senegalese capital Dakar on Saturday calling on President Macky Sall to set a date to elect his successor before his term ends on 2 April. Meanwhile, researchers, teachers, economists and analysts have been gathering to try and break the political stalemate.
Earlier this week, President Macky Sall promised to step down when his mandate ends on 2 April, but he said he could not yet set a new date for an election.
