According to the newspaper Yoor-Yoor Bi, more than 40 billion CFA francs would have been spent under the regime of former President Macky Sall and his Minister of Sports Matar Ba for the construction and rehabilitation of regional and departmental stadiums. However, a large part of these infrastructures would never have been completed. According to the information reported by le quotidien yoor-your, these works, launched several years ago in the framework of a vast sports investment programme, are for the most part halted or delayed considerably. The situation raises questions on the management of public funds allocated to the sports sector, while Senegal aspires to host important international competitions. The journal underlines that this dossier highlights the recurrent difficulties linked to the monitoring and governance of public projects, in particular in the field of sports infrastructures.
