Romuald Wadagni has been sworn in as Benin’s new president after securing over 94% of the vote in April’s election. In his inaugural address, he outlined ambitious goals: fostering inclusive economic growth, improving living standards, upholding the rule of law, and strengthening counter-terrorism measures. The question now is which of these priorities will shape his leadership in the coming years.

With his first government now in place, public expectations are high. What challenges will he face first? Which policy areas deserve immediate attention? And how will Beninese citizens react to the new administration’s early decisions? We want to hear from you.
