The broom is synonymous with the leading political party in Nigeria, a country referred as a giant in West Africa.<\/p>\n
The Senegalese President-Elect, who will assume office by April 2, was seen waving a broom, the way the members of the All Progressives Congress, APC, do in Nigeria during rallies, campaigns or victory parades.<\/p>\n
Faye, a member of the banned African Patriots of Senegal for Work, Ethics and Fraternity (French: Patriotes africains du S\u00e9n\u00e9gal pour le travail, l\u2019\u00e9thique et la fraternit\u00e9; PASTEF, won the presidential election as an opposition coalition\u2019s populist.<\/p>\n
Amadou Ba, a 62-year-old former finance minister and immediate past prime minister in Sall\u2019s cabinet who ran as the ruling party coalition\u2019s choice, conceded defeat to Faye on Monday and congratulated him.<\/p>\n
DAILY POST reports that Senegalese law requires a candidate to win 50% or more of the vote to be declared president after the first round, failing which a second round between the top two candidates will decide the election.<\/p>\n
The 44-year-old Faye was one of 19 candidates on the ballot in the contest to replace President Macky Sall who is term-limited.<\/p>\n
