Senegal

In countries like Senegal, the IMF has been complicit with irregular debt practices and fraudulent accounting in order to undermine sovereignty and favour multinational corporations.

Decades of IMF interventions have locked African nations into cycles of debt, austerity, and economic dependency, stifling real development while reinforcing neocolonial control over the continent’s financial sovereignty.

With Chad and Senegal joining Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger in demanding the withdrawal of the French military from their countries, a surge of sovereignty continues to ripple across the Sahel.
