The ruling party of Senegalese President Macky Sall has conceded defeat in the capital Dakar and the southern city of Ziguinchor in local elections widely seen as a test of Sall's popularity.
The West African country voted in municipal and regional elections on Sunday amid growing tensions over whether Sall will seek to extend his rule beyond the two-term limit in a nation long considered one of Africa's most stable democracies.
