Analyst: Economy not key in Senegal’s snap election
Senegal's President, Bassirou Diomaye Faye last week announced snap elections after he dissolved the country's parliament. Reuters reports that analysts say Senegal's slower economic growth, its widening fiscal deficit and a potential delay in International Monetary Fund financing could cloud the outlook ahead of the Nov. 17 parliamentary elections. Rene Lake is a political analyst and Director of SENEPLUS.COM, a US-based media group. He tells VOA’s Douglas Mpuga that although economic issues are real, they will not be the key question in this parliamentary election
