Patrimoine bâti : le grand coup de balai de la Sogepa rapporte 25 milliards F CFA à...
The State-owned Building Management and Operation Company (Sogepa) has recovered nearly 25 billion CFA francs after renegotiating several contracts deemed particularly unfavorable to the public interest. The company's director general, Elimane Pouye, told Libération that this major regularization operation follows a rigorous audit of 19 allocation contracts. Past management practices were heavily criticized for their lack of transparency, with the audit revealing what amounted to a fire sale of national assets.
Many buildings had been sold to individuals who lacked both the technical expertise and the financial resources to carry out the originally planned infrastructure. Even more seriously, several contracts allowed third parties to benefit from valuable land and buildings—estimated at over 50 billion euros—without the state receiving any real compensation.
Thanks to a firm renegotiation strategy, Sogepa succeeded in reversing the trend. This approach also drastically reduces the State's rental costs, which previously amounted to 16 billion per year for housing administrative services and staff.
A concrete example of this reorganization is the repurposing of the former headquarters of the High Council of Territorial Authorities (HCCT). The building now houses the Ministry of the Civil Service, Labour and Public Service Reform, a decision that allows the State to save 600 million in annual rent, an amount previously paid to a private landlord.
