As Senegal holds its presidential election Sunday, mediatory role of former President Olusegun Obasanjo in the political crisis plaguing the country suffered a setback last night as anti-President Abdoulaye Wade protesters turned down Obasanjo's proposed two-year in office for Wade and ordered the former Nigerian President to leave their country.
Obasanjo, who arrived Senegal last week to mediate a solution to the political standoff in the country, had told the people at a news conference that Wade would step down after two years of his election for a third term in office.
His news conference was however interrupted by anti-Wade protesters who screamed: "Leave our country Mr. Obasanjo. We will never accept it."
Eighty five-year-old Wade has thrown himself up for re-election in today's presidential race. He is, however, running for a third term in office, contrary to the term limits he had introduced into the country's constitution.
