L\u2019ancien ministre de l\u2019\u00c9nergie, de l\u2019Eau et des Mines, Paulin Akponna, a officiellement pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 ses excuses dans un communiqu\u00e9 transmis ce samedi 28 juin 2025 \u00e0 la r\u00e9daction de Banouto. Cette d\u00e9claration fait suite \u00e0 une vive pol\u00e9mique suscit\u00e9e par ses propos tenus le 21 juin dernier \u00e0 Parakou, lors d’une sortie politique dans le nord du B\u00e9nin.<\/p>\n
Lors de cette intervention publique, M. Akponna avait \u00e9voqu\u00e9 un pr\u00e9tendu \u00ab siphonage du budget national portant sur des dizaines de milliards de francs CFA \u00bb, en faisant r\u00e9f\u00e9rence \u00e0 son pr\u00e9d\u00e9cesseur, Samou Adambi \u00e0 qui il a succ\u00e9d\u00e9. Dans son communiqu\u00e9, Paulin Akponna mesure la teneur de sa d\u00e9claration<\/p>\n
\u00ab Avec un l\u00e9ger recul, je mesure la gravit\u00e9 de ces propos dont j\u2019assume l\u2019enti\u00e8re responsabilit\u00e9 \u00bb, \u00e9crit-il.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Il pr\u00e9cise que ses accusations ne reposaient sur aucune preuve tangible, mais sur des souvenirs impr\u00e9cis de faits dont il n\u2019a pas \u00e9t\u00e9 t\u00e9moin et qui, selon lui, feraient l\u2019objet de proc\u00e9dures devant la CRIET.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00ab Les interpr\u00e9tations donn\u00e9es par les uns et les autres \u00e0 juste titre tendent \u00e0 accuser mon pr\u00e9d\u00e9cesseur. Ce qui n\u2019est ni juste ni fond\u00e9 \u00bb, affirme-t-il.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Il adresse ainsi ses excuses \u00e0 Samou Adambi, au pr\u00e9sident de la R\u00e9publique Patrice Talon, au gouvernement, ainsi qu\u2019\u00e0 son parti politique, le Bloc R\u00e9publicain.<\/p>\n
Par ailleurs, il \u00e9voque une \u00ab faute politique gravissime \u00bb, et reconna\u00eet avoir port\u00e9 atteinte \u00e0 la sinc\u00e9rit\u00e9 de l\u2019action gouvernementale et contribu\u00e9 \u00e0 nourrir des pol\u00e9miques et des divisions inutiles.<\/p>\n
Il se dit \u00ab pein\u00e9 et atterr\u00e9 \u00bb par les r\u00e9percussions de ses propos, qu\u2019il attribue \u00e0 une \u00ab p\u00e9dagogie de pi\u00e8tre profane politique \u00bb, marqu\u00e9e par des exemples mal choisis et contre-productifs.<\/p>\n
\u00ab Tout m\u2019engage et devrait \u00eatre pes\u00e9 et sous-pes\u00e9. \u00bb, a-t-il dit en tirant le\u00e7on des r\u00e9percussions de ses propos<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
