2 houses, 2 cars, 2 bank accounts: Senegal president-elect publishes full assets

Bassirou Diomaye Faye, Senegal’s president-elect will take office in April after winning the March 24 presidential election.

Two days to the election (March 22, 2024), Diomaye Faye publicly published his full assets on his official Facebook page and challenged the other 18 contenders to do the same.

He also operated two bank accounts and lived in a house that he built himself.

The document also confirmed that he was into farming and his main debt was to a friend who he had taken a loan from to invest in his farm.

Faye and Sonko are leaders of the Patriotes Africains du Sénégal pour le Travail, l’Ethique et la Fraternité (Pastef), a party dissolved in July 2023.

In 2014, at the age of 34, Faye, an alumnus of the Ecole Nationale de l’Administration (ENA), made his mark during the meetings that led to the creation of Pastef.

Diomaye Faye has two wives, which development has attracted a lot of reactions on social media.
