Barely elected to lead the National Assembly for the 10th Legislature, Joseph Djogbénou begins the first actions of his term.

The new president of Benin’s Parliament has appointed his aides, marking the official start of his administration.
According to information gathered, Kossi Antoine Louis Djédou, a retired Treasury Inspector and the outgoing mayor of the Abomey commune, was named assistant to the president of the National Assembly.
Beside him, Igor Alognon Boco, the outgoing head of the Godomey arrondissement, was also designated to perform the same duties for Joseph Djogbénou.
