Fin de la grève des transporteurs : quatre points d'accords sur dix, ce qui a été acté
Good news for road users: after ten days of paralysis, the road transport sector is beginning to return to normal across the country. The deadlock was resolved thanks to the intervention of the Head of State, Bassirou Diomaye Faye.
“The strike order has been lifted. We are asking all transport operators to resume their activities while consultations continue,” declared Fallou Samb, Secretary General of the National Federation of Road Transport Unions, following a meeting with the Minister of the Interior, Bamba Cissé, and the Minister of Land Transport, Yankhoba Diémé. The union leader, quoted by Le Soleil, explained that this progress resulted from the intervention of the Head of State, who facilitated the resumption of dialogue: “The President of the Republic’s mediation [...] allowed us to find common ground on the essentials.”
Of the four points of agreement reached, the main advance concerns the lifting of the nighttime driving ban, with the Minister of the Interior pledging to suspend this measure which "significantly impacted the revenues" of transport companies. The parties also agreed on the reinstatement of joint checkpoints on road corridors to improve the coordination of enforcement.
To combat road harassment, "a memo will be sent to the commissioners to significantly reduce random checks" in urban areas. Finally, while the social welfare system for workers remains unresolved, the continuation of dialogue is confirmed through the examination of six remaining points within ad hoc committees.
