Benin – Local governance: 72 mayors already designated out of 77 (list)

In accordance with the installation calendar of the municipal councils, several communes already know the team that will accompany them for the next seven years.

According to publicly released information, 72 of the 77 expected mayors have already been designated to date to lead local affairs in their respective municipalities.

This process is part of the institutional cycle provided for by the Electoral Code and decentralization texts, which confer on the municipal council the responsibility to elect its mayor and its deputies.

The designation of mayors took place in a generally peaceful climate, reflecting the coherence of the political majorities arising from the municipal elections.

At this stage, five communes remain waiting to complete their executive, either due to electoral disputes, or because negotiations are still ongoing within the councils to reach a consensus on the designation of the incumbents.
