Xalima has dismissed as completely unfounded a circulating report that claimed an emergency gathering was organized by Ousmane Sonko at his residence in the Keur Gorgui district. The alleged meeting, scheduled for 6 p.m. and supposedly involving key members of the Pastef party, was described as a hastily arranged political huddle amid rising tensions in the capital.

However, a trusted associate of Sonko reached out to the newsroom to categorically refute the claim. The source emphasized that no official summons or invitation had been issued to any members of the party’s leadership, whether for a meeting at Sonko’s home or elsewhere. The individual went on to criticize the spread of misinformation on social platforms, calling it a deliberate attempt to manipulate public perception.
