Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko focused his communication on two structuring projects: the reorganization of ministerial departments and the reform of the national retirement system.
He first recalled the ambition of a modern and efficient Administration, evoking dysfunctions such as the redundancy of structures, conflicts of competence, the multiplication of decision-making centers or even the lack of coherence in the ministerial organization. He instructed the competent services to integrate his guidelines into the new organizational decrees, and requested a new territorial administration plan by February 2026.
Concerning pensions, Ousmane Sonko insisted on the need for a more inclusive and financially solid system. He underlined the strategic role of the IPRES reserves, intended to become a lever of the Economic and Social Recovery Plan. He called for the development of a 2025–2028 roadmap, structured around the sanitation of the system, the broadening of the contributory base and the gradual orientation of investments.
