 Senegal election 2024: Anta Babacar, the only woman on presidential ballot


Anta Babacar, a former business executive, is promising to restructure the economy to curb inflation and youth unemployment.


Senegal will hold its rescheduled presidential elections on Sunday, March 24, with just one woman on the presidential ballot out of 18 candidates.


Anta Babacar never stopped campaigning when outgoing President Macky Sall launched a failed bid last month to postpone the poll by 10 months.


After multiple run-ins with police at protests, including an arrest in February, her campaign has taken on a more formal air as she and other presidential candidates rush to make the most of a shortened campaign period.


Babacar, 39, launched the Alternative for the Next Generation of Citizens (ARC) political movement in August 2023.


The daughter of the founding president of Sedima, a leading poultry production group in the West and Central Africa region, she was until recently executive director of the company, which also operates Senegal's Kentucky Fried Chicken franchises.
