From Trudy Stevenson, Zimbabwe’s Ambassador to Senegal:

I am so privileged to share with the Senegalese their joy in managing their transition to a new government led by new president Macky Sall.  Despite all the tension and the violent demonstrations and loss of life since 23 June 2011, in the end the transition has been achieved through the ballot box in complete peace, with the outgoing president Wade telephoning the winner Macky Sall to congratulate him on his victory even before the last results are out. This is indeed democracy, and African democracy – so we CAN do it!!  Well done Senegal!
