Local political activities and movements are unfolding across Senegal and Togo. In Senegal, Baye Khalifa Niass of the KIIRAAY – Les Patriotes Républicains party has presented a platform for the Kaolack mayoralty focused on intercommunal cooperation and leveraging religious influence for economic growth. Concurrently, Kaffrine Mayor Abdoulaye Saydou Sow is preparing to launch a new political movement on September 12, following a tour to consult religious leaders regarding a project centered on territorial development and addressing infrastructure deficits in health, water, and electricity.

In Togo, local governance efforts are centered in the Adakpamé-Apeyémé neighborhood, where Ameyitovi Yao is campaigning for the renewal of the Neighborhood Development Committee. This campaign emphasizes sustainable development and environmental protection ahead of a scheduled vote on August 30, 2026.
