FADP 2025 : Le CDEPS annonce une plainte devant l'OFNAC
Regarding the management of the Press Support and Development Fund (FADP), the Council of Publishers and Press Professionals (CDEPS) denounces "major irregularities" in the funding allocation process. The CDEPS points out that Article 19 of the decree governing the FADP clearly defines the documents required for any application, while Article 14 mandates the issuance of a receipt for every complete application.
However, the period for submitting physical applications, set from December 24 to 27, 2025, is considered "clearly insufficient." This window of only five days, including a public holiday and a weekend, would not have allowed media companies to compile applications that met the requirements.
This explains why the success rate for physical applications is 38.15%, compared to over 80% for digital submissions via the DMS platform. The CDEPS describes this disparity as a "procedural inequality of 41.8 points," which it considers non-accidental. Furthermore, the heads of private media companies claim that the digital platform used was "deemed illegally established by the Supreme Court."
Faced with what it considers to be "manifest violations" of the law and the organic decree of the FADP, the CDEPS plans to contact the National Office for the Fight against Fraud and Corruption (OFNAC) and the courts in the coming days to denounce in particular a "misappropriation of public funds" and a "flagrant violation of the allocation rules".
Furthermore, the Council, a member of the FADP management board, admits to having refused to participate in the press conference organized by the Ministry of Communication. This was to avoid "endorsing a process tainted by major irregularities," after receiving no response to a request for postponement addressed to the Minister on December 29, 2025.
Furthermore, according to Maïmouna Ndour Faye, a member of the CDEPS, "no assistance was provided to the tax authorities in obtaining the required documents." This contradicts what was stated by the Director of Communications, Habibou Dia, on the sidelines of the press conference announcing the publication of the 2025 management report for the Press Support and Development Fund (FADP).
