Through his contributions to film, television, the arts and sports, he has left an indelible mark and is recognized worldwide and across generations. He was a beloved brother, father, grandfather, partner, and friend.”

Carl was a heavyweight in the movie industry, boasting acting credits that trace back to the early 1970s when he made guest appearances on shows such as ‘Good Times,’ ‘Kung Fu,’ ‘S.W.A.T.,’ ‘The Six Million Dollar Man,’ ‘Cannon,’ ‘McCloud,’ and others.

He secured his breakthrough role as the brash and bold heavyweight champion of the world, Apollo, facing off against Rocky in the ring for two films.

Carl’s character remained present for an additional two ‘Rocky’ films. In the third installment, he played a pivotal role in bringing the Italian Stallion out of a slump and back to glory through a new and unconventional training regimen.

Macky Sall, president of Senegal, has announced a postponement of the February 25 presidential election.

Sall made the announcement on Saturday during a national broadcast wherein he also called for dialogue with stakeholders.

“I will initiate an open national dialogue to bring together the conditions for a free, transparent and inclusive election in a peaceful and reconciled Senegal,” Sall said.

Sall has been president of Senegal since 2012 and recently announced that he would not be seeking a third term.

The Senegalese 2021 constitution only allows a president to serve for five years and is limited to two terms.

The president, who had previously hinted at a third term as granted by the constitutional council, recently decided to step down and announced Amadou Ba, prime minister, as his preferred successor.

He reiterated on Saturday that he would not be seeking a third term.

“As for me, my solemn commitment not to run for the presidential election remains unchanged,” Sall said.

Some civil society organisations had expressed concerns on issues relating to the electoral process.
