A new institutional chapter is opening in Benin. On Thursday, the country officially inaugurated its Senate, the new chamber of Parliament whose creation was enshrined in the 2025 constitutional revision. The ceremony marks the culmination of a reform that profoundly alters the country's legislative structure.
The event was marked by a powerful image: the simultaneous presence of former presidents Patrice Talon and Thomas Boni Yayi, two figures whose political trajectories often diverged. Their joint appearance at the inauguration attracted considerable attention.
This new institution is entrusted with a mission to regulate Beninese political life, complementing the National Assembly in the exercise of legislative power.
