Senegal jails three TikTok influencers over posts criticising president Faye
A Senegalese court has sentenced three TikTok influencers to prison for posts that allegedly insulted President Bassirou Diomaye Faye.
The ruling has triggered criticism from those who say it reflects growing concerns over freedom of expression and online speech in Senegal.
The three influencers work with an online content platform. Some observers say the platform’s content is favourable towards former Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko, the leader of the PASTEF party.
The case comes as tensions rise within Senegal’s ruling political camp following a public split between President Faye and Sonko, who were once close allies. Faye recently launched his own political party, further deepening divisions between the two political figures.
