Senego is a Senegalese digital news organization based in Dakar. Launched on August 29, 2008, it publishes primarily in French and delivers breaking news, analysis, and video reports across politics, society, business, culture, religion, and sport, serving audiences in Senegal and the diaspora. The newsroom operates around the clock and is led by publisher Sidy Mbacké, with Mangoné Ka as editor‑in‑chief, supported by a team of reporters, photographers and video producers. Built mobile‑first, Senego expanded early into apps—rolling out Android and iOS versions in 2012—that have since become among the country’s most downloaded news apps; by 2015 they had surpassed 600,000 installs, reflecting the outlet’s large on‑the‑go audience. Senego distributes in multiple formats, including short‑form video through “Senego TV,” and covers major events with live updates and on‑scene reporting. Its business model centers on advertising, including display, video and sponsored content. In February 2024, journalists at the company formed an officially installed section of the SYNPICS media workers’ union, marking a milestone in its internal governance. With a focus on fast, locally grounded reporting and broad topic coverage, Senego has become a prominent reference point in Senegal’s online media landscape, known for its constant news updates and strong presence on mobile platforms. Its Dakar headquarters house dedicated studios and editing suites to support daily video production.
