Une r\u00e9organisation de la chefferie traditionnelle a r\u00e9cemment \u00e9t\u00e9 faite avec la promulgation de la loi n\u00b02025-09 du 3 avril 2025 par le pr\u00e9sident Patrice Talon. Cette r\u00e9forme, pr\u00e9sent\u00e9e lors d\u2019une conf\u00e9rence de presse conjointe tenue le 25 avril 2025 \u00e0 Cotonou par le ministre du Tourisme, de la culture et des arts, Jean-Michel Abimbola, et le comit\u00e9 scientifique, consacre officiellement 16 royaumes traditionnels, 80 chefferies sup\u00e9rieures et 10 chefferies coutumi\u00e8res. <\/p>\n

Selon le ministre, Jean-Michel Abimbola, cette reconnaissance repose sur trois crit\u00e8res fondamentaux: le territoire g\u00e9ographique couvert par l\u2019entit\u00e9, le type de pouvoir exerc\u00e9 et la structure sociale hi\u00e9rarchis\u00e9e. Ces crit\u00e8res, d\u00e9finis avec rigueur par le comit\u00e9 scientifique, permettent de distinguer les v\u00e9ritables royaumes des autres formes de chefferie traditionnelle. \u00abNous ne d\u00e9couronnons personne\u00bb, a tenu \u00e0 rassurer Jean-Michel Abimbola, pr\u00e9cisant que les chefs traditionnels non reconnus comme rois selon ces crit\u00e8res peuvent continuer \u00e0 exercer leurs fonctions dans le respect de la loi. Cette r\u00e9forme met ainsi fin au d\u00e9sordre qui r\u00e9gnait dans la cr\u00e9ation des entit\u00e9s traditionnelles et la d\u00e9volution du pouvoir.<\/p>\n

Contrairement \u00e0 certaines interpr\u00e9tations, la loi n\u2019a supprim\u00e9 aucune entit\u00e9 existante. Les structures non reconnues parmi les royaumes ou chefferies sup\u00e9rieures sont d\u00e9sormais class\u00e9es comme chefferies communautaires, avec la possibilit\u00e9 de poursuivre leurs activit\u00e9s dans un cadre l\u00e9gal. Pour le porte-parole du gouvernement, Wilfried L\u00e9andre Houngb\u00e9dji, cette r\u00e9forme traduit la volont\u00e9 de l\u2019\u00c9tat d\u2019organiser le pays sur des bases modernes tout en respectant les r\u00e9alit\u00e9s locales. Les d\u00e9tenteurs de titres coutumiers peuvent ainsi continuer \u00e0 jouer leur r\u00f4le social et culturel, mais dans un cadre mieux structur\u00e9.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
