The latest provisional registry from the National Office for Combating Corruption highlights significant gaps in asset declarations among top state officials.

The National Office for Combating Corruption (Ofnac) has released its provisional registry, finalized on July 31, 2026, outlining a detailed assessment of asset declaration violations at the highest levels of government. Nine key positions linked to the Presidency and the National Assembly have been flagged for failing to comply with mandatory disclosure requirements.

The majority of these oversights—seven in total—are concentrated within the Executive branch, particularly within the Presidential Palace and its affiliated agencies. Notable among these are the President’s personal representative to the International Organization of La Francophonie (OIF), the Special Envoy of the President of the Republic, and the Director of the Presidential Protocol Service. Additionally, administrative and financial mismanagement has been identified in strategic bodies under the Presidency’s oversight: the Administrative and Financial Director of the Personal Data Protection Commission (Cdp), the Administrative and Financial Manager of the National Committee for the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (Cn-Itie), the Director of Finance and Support Services of the Telecommunications and Postal Regulation Authority (Artp), and the Deputy Managing Director of the Investment Promotion and Major Works Agency (Apix-Sa), representing the parapublic sector.

Within the Legislative branch, Ofnac has also identified two high-profile cases within the Bureau of the National Assembly: the eighth vice-president of the institution and a former third vice-president, whose term ended without a declaration despite the obligation to do so during their mandate.

Ofnac has emphasized a positive note: every active member of the government has fully complied with the asset declaration process. None have left office or exceeded the regulatory deadline without submitting their declarations, with the registry noting “None” for this category—a testament to transparency in the current administration.
