The National Assembly in Bamako is set to host a fresh round of parliamentary scrutiny this Friday, May 22, 2026, as Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko and his cabinet prepare to face direct questioning from lawmakers. The session was confirmed by El Malick Ndiaye, President of the National Assembly.
This recurring exchange between the executive branch and elected representatives offers a formal platform for deputies to challenge government policies and demand clarity on pressing national issues. Key topics expected to dominate discussions include economic stability, rising living costs, job creation, institutional reforms, and the implementation of public policies.
Since assuming office in April 2024, Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko has participated in four such parliamentary sessions, establishing this format as a cornerstone of Mali’s democratic accountability process.
