⚖️ 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗼 𝗠𝗘𝗧𝗢𝗡𝗢𝗨 : « 𝗛𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗶𝘀𝗲𝗿 𝗹𝗮 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗽𝗲́𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗲 𝘀𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝗷𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗿 𝗮̀ 𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝗱𝗲́𝘀𝗮𝗿𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 » À l’occasion de la rentrée solennelle 2026-2027 de la Cour de Répression des Infractions Économiques et du Terrorisme (CRIET), ce 12 octobre 2026 à Cotonou, le Procureur spécial près la CRIET, Elonm Mario METONOU, a prononcé un réquisitoire fort autour du thème : « 𝙃𝙪𝙢𝙖𝙣𝙞𝙨𝙚𝙧 𝙡𝙖 𝙟𝙪𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙘𝙚 𝙥𝙚́𝙣𝙖𝙡𝙚 : 𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙧𝙚 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙩𝙚𝙘𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙙𝙚𝙨 𝙙𝙧𝙤𝙞𝙩𝙨 𝙝𝙪𝙢𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙨 𝙚𝙩 𝙚𝙛𝙛𝙞𝙘𝙖𝙘𝙞𝙩𝙚́ 𝙧𝙚́𝙥𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙞𝙫𝙚 ». Voici les points marquants de son intervention : ●𝗨𝗻 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗼𝘅𝗲 𝗲𝘁 𝘂𝗻 𝗳𝗹𝘂𝘅 𝗱'𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗮𝗶𝗿𝗲𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗱 : Alors qu’elle est parfois perçue comme une institution inflexible ou redoutée, la CRIET est de plus en plus sollicitée par les justiciables. Le volume de plaintes et procès-verbaux a grimpé de 3 067 (2024-2025) à 3 849 (2025-2026), marquant une hausse de 25,50 %. ●𝗟'𝗲𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗰𝗶𝘁𝗲́ 𝗿𝗲́𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗮𝘂𝘅 𝗳𝗹𝗲́𝗮𝘂𝘅 : Corruption d'envergure, terrorisme, cybercriminalité et violences sexuelles demeurent dans la ligne de mire de la juridiction pour briser l'impunité. ●𝗟𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗳𝘂𝘀 𝗱'𝘂𝗻𝗲 𝗺𝗲́𝗰𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲 𝗮𝘃𝗲𝘂𝗴𝗹𝗲 : Mario METONOU insiste sur le fait que la justice ne doit pas devenir un « couperet aveugle » ou une gestion statistique. Il a fermement rappelé l'importance de la présomption d'innocence, des droits de la défense, de l'individualisation des peines et du recours à la détention provisoire comme stricte exception. ●𝗟𝗮 𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗲̀𝗺𝗲 𝘃𝗼𝗶𝗲 𝗱𝗲 𝗹𝗮 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗲́ : Entre le laxisme et la terreur, la CRIET revendique la justesse et la proportionnalité, rappelant que l'efficacité d'une sanction tient à sa certitude et non à sa cruauté. « 𝗤𝘂𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗿𝗲 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗲 𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗲, 𝗺𝗮𝗶𝘀 𝗾𝘂'𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲 𝗴𝗮𝗿𝗱𝗲 𝘂𝗻 𝗰œ𝘂𝗿 𝗾𝘂𝗶 𝗯𝗮𝘁. » — 𝗘𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗺 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗼 𝗠𝗘𝗧𝗢𝗡𝗢𝗨 𝗢𝗸𝗿𝘆 🐒 #Bénin #MarioMetonou #Justice #CRIET #DroitsHumains #RentréeJudiciaire #ÉtatDeDroit

it's not only the people ( black people) that suffered injustice under white supremacy through the trans Atlantic slave trade, even the actual land size of the continent of Africa was reduced half of its original size. as part of the resolution passed by the UN general Assembly yesterday Africans are advised to revise their school text books and curriculum to depict the actual size of the African map. making a case for trans Atlantic slave trade as the most cruel crime against the human race should just be a rhetoric. but should guide us in the next chapter of our survival. #Awinfortheblackrace

```good morning comrades, WAS DEMOCRACY(CONSTITUTION ) BUILT TO PROTECT THE HIGH AND MIGHTY ?? I am asking this on the back of recent agitation from some sections of the public for the release of Ato Essien ( capital bank ) and the subsequent action of our current AG to drop all charges against Dr Duffour ( uni bank ) on the basis of him returning 60% of the funds he is on trail for . on the other side a common commercial traffic offender, someone who stole plantain, cassava etc, are facing multiple jail terms I am not a lawyer but as a forward thinking Ghanaian I feel a distortion here. the earlier it's addressed the better . the political class will always find a way around the justice system leaving the masses to its faith. good morning```

In Loving Memory: H.E Flt. Lt. Jeremiah John Rawlings Today, I remember and honor the life and legacy of a true statesman, Leader, and mentor, H.E Flt. Lt. Jerry John Rawlings, the founder of Ghana's democracy and the first President of the 4th Republic. As someone who had the privilege of being guided by his wisdom and mentorship, I am forever grateful for the lessons he imparted and the trust he placed in me. His leadership and vision not only shaped the National Democratic Congress's and Ghana's journey but also resonated globally, inspiring a generation of leaders and citizens worldwide. I had the privilege of witnessing firsthand his commitment to public service, his passion for justice, and his unwavering dedication to the Ghanaian people. May his memory live on in my heart, and may the lessons he taught me continue to guide me in my own journey. May his legacy inspire future generations to strive for excellence, integrity, and service to others. Happy Birthday, Papa J and Rest in Power, Mentor and Guide.

Let's Discuss This, People! Justice Sir Dennis Dominic Adjei, Supreme Court Nominee has stated that if individuals cannot legally marry at 16, they should equally not be permitted to engage in sexual activities.
