Senegalese opponents to President Abdoulaye Wade's bid for a third term, Cheikh Tidjane Gadio (C), presidential candidates Idrissa Seck Ousmane (L) and Macky Sall (R), attend on February 5, 2012 during a protest on Obelisk Square in Dakar. Hundreds of Senegalese opponents to Wade's bid gathered, hoping to energize their protest movement as the election campaign officially kicked off. The rally brought together eight of the 13 opposition candidates challenging Wade in the February 26 election. On January 27, Senegal's constitutional council cleared the 85-year-old incumbent's bid for a third mandate but rejected the candidacy of Ndour.
