Swearing-in ceremony: The National Order of Experts of Senegal welcomes 18 new members

The National Order of Experts of Senegal (ONES) has welcomed 18 new members. They took their oath this Thursday morning during a formal ceremony, officially marking their entry into this regulated profession and their service to justice.

On this occasion, the new experts were invited to fully grasp the responsibilities associated with their new role. According to the Secretary General of Ones, Dr. Amath Sow, the advice they received focused primarily on respecting professional and ethical obligations.

"The advice mainly consisted of reminding them of the professional and ethical obligations that weigh on them in the context of practicing this profession," he explained.

The Secretary General of ONES reiterated that the expert is an auxiliary to the justice system, governed by Senegalese legislation. "The expert is a technical professional tasked with assisting jurisdictions, courts and tribunals, but also with being available to public and private companies and all institutions operating in the economic sphere," explained Dr. Amath Sow.

Among the new members is Cheikh Ahmeth Tidiane Bâ, former Director General of Taxes and State Property and former head of the Agricultural Bank. For him, this swearing-in ceremony represents the culmination of a professional career marked by the continuous pursuit of knowledge, training, and hard work.

"I consider what has just happened to be a consecration since this oath allows me to put myself at the service of justice in my country and therefore naturally at the service of my fellow citizens," said the new member of the Order.
