Senegal
Opposition candidate Bassirou Diomaye Faye is set to become Senegal's next president after provisional results showed the 44-year-old was headed for a huge first-round victory.
On Monday, Amadou Ba, the Prime Minister and candidate of the ruling coalition, conceded defeat and congratulated Faye, a former tax inspector.
Before his concession message, Ba's supporters had hoped that their candidate would mount some sort of comeback to at least force a runoff vote.
The election commission has until midnight on Friday to announce the results of Sunday's presidential election.
