Waly Diouf Bodian slams Mary Teuw Niane: “we do not respect those who disrespect Ousmane Sonko”

Waly Diouf Bodian, a senior official of Pastef, has strongly reacted to recent remarks by Professor Mary Teuw Niane concerning verbal violence and mutual respect in public discourse. The political figure accuses the former higher education minister of inconsistency, pointing to earlier attacks directed at Pastef leader Ousmane Sonko.

Bodian categorically dismisses the academic’s calls for calm and questions his institutional stance. “After calling President Ousmane Sonko an impostor, Mary Teuw Niane now comes to lecture us on morality, verbal violence, and respect for others. It is too late, Professor,” Bodian declared. Continuing his criticism, he added: “Your literary nonsense on Sundays no longer works with us patriots. We do not respect those who do not respect Ousmane Sonko.” He concluded by accusing Mary Teuw Niane of having abandoned national values to align with those in power.
