The meeting follows the signing of a cessation of hostilities agreement with the ad hoc committee created by the Head of State, according to the Presidency.
On Saturday May 13, 2023, the State of Senegal and a rebel faction of the Movement of Democratic Forces of Casamance (MFDC), the Diakay signed a peace agreement by which those rebels undertook to lay down their arms. At least 250 MFDC fighters accepted the laying down of arms during a ceremony organised in Mangone, a locality in the Department of Bignona, which in the past housed an important base of the irredentist movement.
