Sàmm Sa Kàddu (; SSK or just Kàddu) is a Senegalese political coalition led by the Mayor of Dakar . The coalition was established ahead of the snap 2024 parliamentary election.[1]
The foundation of the Sàmm Sa Kàddu/Save Senegal coalition was announced on 23 September 2024 in a communiqué signed by the Party for Unity and Rally (PUR), Taxawu Sénégal, Alternative for Citizen Succession (ARC), The Servants / MPR, Republican Party for Progress (PRP), Generational Alliance for the Interests of the Republic (AGIR) and Gueum Sa Bopp parties.[2]
Takku Wallu Sénégal became part of a broad anti-PASTEF "inter-coalition", along with two other colaitions: Takku Wallu Sénégal led by Macky Sall and Jàmm ak Njariñ led by Amadou Ba. The coalitions joined forces in almost all of Senegal's departments, forming joint lists.[3]
On 23 October, Déthié Fall, leader of the Republican Party for Progress, announced that he was leaving the Sàmm Sa Kàddu coalition and joining the ruling PASTEF.[4] [5] [6] After this, the leader of the women's wing of PRP left the party.[7]
Sàmm Sa Kàddu positions itself as the "Anti-Sonko third way" and "constructive opposition and the only generational alternative to PASTEF". The coalition advocates for the renewal and rejuvenation of the Senegalese political class.[8]
