5 | The five elders on the council have accepted the nomination of Abdoulaye Wade, who is seeking a third term, an action considered unconstitutional by many Senegalese voters. Furthermore, the council denied the candidacy of the singer Youssou N'Dour, on the pretext that he would not have collected enough signatures to support his candidacy. | Nanaiky ny firotsahan'i Abdoulaye Wade, izay hirotsaka fanintelony heverin'ny Senegaley maro ho mifanohitra amin'ny Lalampanorenana ny “Loholona” dimy ary nandà ny firotsahan'ilay mpihira Youssou N'Dour, nolazaina fa tsy ampy ny sonia hahafahany mirotsaka hofidiana. |
