DAKAR: Several opposition candidates in Senegal’s delayed presidential election on Sunday declared rival Bassirou Diomaye Faye the winner after first tallies showed him taking the lead, sending opposition supporters out on the streets for early celebrations.

Millions took part in a peaceful day on voting on Sunday to elect Senegal’s fifth president following three years of unprecedented political turbulence that sparked violent anti-government protests and buoyed support for the opposition.
