The National Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá’ís of Benin is the body which administrates the Bahá’í community of Benin.
History[edit]
The Bahá’í community in Benin was administrated by the National Spiritual Assembly of Dahomey, Togo and Niger from 1970 to 1975 when the country elected an independent National Spiritual Assembly.[1][2]
It was called the National Spiritual Assembly of Dahomey until 1976 when it was renamed the National Spiritual Assembly of Benin.[3]
