In a move underscoring commitment to financial transparency, Ousmane Sonko, President of the National Assembly, has formally declared his assets in accordance with public official regulations.
The disclosure places him among the parliamentarians who have fulfilled this mandatory requirement, as confirmed by the official roster published by the National Office for the Fight Against Corruption (OFNAC).
Who else has complied with asset declarations?
This transparency initiative extends beyond the Assembly’s leadership. Vice-presidents, parliamentary group chairs, and financial officers have also submitted their declarations, reinforcing the institution’s dedication to accountability.
The process aligns with broader efforts to strengthen oversight and prevent illicit enrichment among high-ranking officials. By verifying these submissions, OFNAC plays a pivotal role in ensuring compliance and fostering public trust in governance.
A new chapter for Sonko
For Ousmane Sonko, the declaration coincides with his recent appointment as head of the National Assembly. The timing reflects a proactive stance on transparency, even as he navigates his new responsibilities.
