Fourth Ex-Minister Charged in Senegal’s Corruption Crackdown | Firstpost Africa | N18G

Senegal is stepping up its fight against corruption with a sweeping crackdown on former government officials. Since April 2024, the new administration led by President Bassirou Diomaye Faye has made anti-corruption a top priority. Recently, four ex-ministers, including those from the Industry, Mining, Justice, and Women’s Affairs ministries, have been formally charged with embezzlement, bribery, and misappropriation of public funds. The government has set up a specialized judicial body to ensure accountability and transparency while facing criticism from opposition groups who call the efforts politically motivated. This ongoing campaign signals a bold move toward reform in Senegal.
