www.euronews.com Senegal has once again just shown that where Africa is concerned, it is a little bit different. It has just held a mostly peaceful and fraud-free presidential election. And, after decades of one man in power a democratic transition can be a difficult thing to pull off, but Senegal appears to have done it, and has a new president, even if new is hardly the first epithet you would award this veteran of Senegal's political scene. So is Macky Sall a new broom who will sweep clean? Euronews' François Chignac, in an exclusive interview, found out. *François Chignac, euronews:* "President Macky Sall, hello and thanks for speaking to euronews. My first question is simple; you describe yourself as the president of 'rupture', a break with the past, but what does that mean for Senegal?" *Macky Sall:* "That means a virtuous, serious, but above all efficient government. Putting public money into the population's vital needs. Living costs are very very high in Senegal while wages are low, and there are no jobs. We have to make sure public money is better spent. "Today we have a social emergency, and that's providing medical cover for everyone, and improving our UN Human Development Index by meeting its criteria on education, professional training, and apprenticeships. But we also need a government that can attract investors and create jobs; that's what rupture means for me." *euronews:* "Well, you talk about good governance but the violence of the last few weeks has <b>...</b>

www.euronews.net Pressure has been increasing to convince Abdulaye Wade not to run for president of Senegal for a third time. Many say the 85-year-old has no place on a ballot coming up late this February. Wade's critics say a third term is not allowed in Senegal's constitution and that if he ran again it could lead one of Africa's most stable democracies into trouble. Senegal's most violent riots under Wade's rule took place in June when he tried to reduce the proportion of votes needed to win an election to 25 percent to avoid a run-off.
www.euronews.net With unofficial results from Senegal's presidential election suggesting a close first round , the two front runners, Abdoulaye Wade and Macky Sall are looking to increase their support. Despite provisional results putting him in the lead there is widespread opposition to Wade's standing for a third term. However, Abdoulaye Wade said his party was in the lead and it would naturally explore all possibilities of any deals with other political forces to find ways to agree and pull together.
