17 months after its creation, the Court of Auditors of Benin is now operational. In the Council of Ministers, the Head of State announced the appointment of Ismath Bio Tchané wife Mamadou to lead the structure.

Civil society players in particular, who for a long time have been clamoring for the creation of an autonomous financial jurisdiction, are now served. The appointment of Ismath Bio Tchané comes to give the top of the functioning of the Court of Auditors. Previously confined within the Supreme Court, the Audit Bench is changing its name, taking on a new status and can now emancipate itself.

Acting as a pioneer, Ismath Bio Tchané wife Mamadou has a great role to play in the animation of this young institution born with teeth. The creation of the Court of Auditors in the countries of the West African Economic and Monetary Union (UEMOA) provides that this jurisdiction must offer "the guarantees of transparency and independence required" in order to "ensure the reliability of the data necessary for the organization of the multilateral surveillance of budgetary policies”.

Thus, as the policeman of “financial public order”, this court ensures the regular keeping of public accounts and exercises regularity control at this level. The challenge of the good animation of this jurisdiction supposes that the deficit of the former Chamber of Accounts in human, material and financial resources will be filled and that its leaders, in particular the advisers and the auditors will be very motivated to carry out their missions.
