Wed, 15 Feb 2012 17:40:03 +0100 (Reuters) - Campaign posters for Senegal's incumbent President Abdoulaye Wade with the Wolof language slogan "Our achievements are there for all to see" are defaced in the capital Dakar, February 15, 2012. Senegal riot police used teargas, truncheons, and a water cannon on Wednesday to disperse hundreds of people in the capital Dakar protesting at President Abdoulaye Wade's decision to seek a third term in office. The clashes in the West African state erupted after demonstrators shouting "Wade step down" gathered at a downtown square near the presidential mansion, shrugging off a state ban on protests in the run-up to the Feb. 26 vote.
