Soham El Wardini edit
- ... that Soham El Wardini is the first female mayor of post-independent Dakar? Source: "The former mayor, Khalifa Sall, was arrested on suspicion of embezzling 1.8 billion CFA francs and was then convicted of swindling public funds... His legal wrangles, however, paved the way for Dakar’s historic election of Soham El Wardini, the city’s first female mayor since independence in 1960. Prior to that, Dakar has had only one pre-independence mayoress since it was founded in 1857."
ALT1:... that Soham El Wardini was the first and only deputy mayor of Dakar? Source: "Senegalese politician Soham El Wardini was until recently the first deputy mayor of Dakar"ALT2:... that Soham El Wardini became the first female mayor of post-independent Dakar after the previous mayor was arrested for embezzlement?

New enough--created 17 February, nom 18 Feb; long enough--1723 char; cited; neutral; no apparent copyvios; QPQ done; no photo; hook 0: 74 char--under maximum; verified by source and stated/cited in the article. It is the most interesting of the 3 proposed. (Alt 2 is unacceptable as focuses on negative aspects of a living person even if not the subject). GTG SusunW (talk) 19:23, 18 February 2019 (UTC)
