Ministers of Yayi Boni declare their property
A couple of weeks after their appointment in office, in the framework of the trend of Change, the 26 Ministers of President Yayi Boni, last Friday 29, declared their properties to the nation. It was at the presidential Palace in presence of the head of State, His Excellency Yayi Boni and the representative of the President of the chamber of account. This ceremony is in conformity with the ideals of good governance and fight against corruption advocated by the head of State. As for the ministers, at the end of their mandate in the cabinet, they have to submit a second declaration of property, so as to convince the people of their honesty in office. Under the former regime of Mathieu Kérékou the same requirement has been demanded to the ministers but it did not really prevent from misappropriation of billions of francs.
