7 years after the "peace of the brave", always the same song!


When the Union of Forces for Change (UFC) signed the agreement with the Togolese People's Assembly (RPT), now known as Union for the Republic (UNIR), on May 26, 2010, Gilchrist Olympio and his friends announced that " They will change the daily life of the Togolese in six months and that the reforms will also be implemented within this time. But 7 years later, than disillusionment!



In a report that the UFC alone holds secret, the party indicates that this agreement has made it possible for the political atmosphere, the "economic revival" and the "return of Togo on the international scene" to be "relaxed".

On the last point, that is to say the return of the country on the international scene, some are tempted to give reason to Gilchrist Olympio and his party, since apparently this return comes down to the numerous voyages of Faure Gnassingbé which cost the Eyes of the head to the taxpayer. Togolese travels, according to many observers. What about the summits organized at cost of hundreds of millions in the country while the daily life of the Togolese is made of misery and a pauperization to excess?

Sad what UFC officials call a "return of Togo on the international stage".

Many Togolese are falling from the clouds when the party talks about the "decrispation" of the political atmosphere in Togo. "What can it mean if it is only an enlightenment of an ally in the graces of which one wishes to remain eternally? Asked one observer.


Today, it is clear that the Togolese political landscape remains tense, especially with the barely veiled refusal of the regime to implement the constitutional, institutional and electoral reforms prescribed by the Comprehensive Political Agreement signed in 2006 Opposition and power are always tugging at the subject. At present, there is talk of a blocking of the work at the level of the commission of the constitutional laws which should study the proposal of law revising constitutional deposited in the National Assembly by the couple ANC-ADDI.

On Tuesday, taxi-motorcycle drivers threatened to take by storm the National Assembly through a demonstration outside the radio headquarters of Kanal FM if the reforms were not made. Tomorrow, CAP 2015 calls the people of Lomé to a major meeting in Bè-Kondjindji to talk about the "grave situation that the country is going through."

"How can we describe the political atmosphere in these situations? People do not even bother to hide their bad faith. It is sad for this country, "said a political analyst.

Also, it is discovered in the release of the UFC that its agreement with the RPT / UNIR allowed the "revival of the economy". Exactly the same language that holds the ruling party, despite the public debt that creates the ceiling, with its lot of budget deficit and the difficulties encountered by the state coffers.

Decidedly, there are those who, like those who run this country, refuse to look at realities in the face. The end of the tunnel is, in this case, still very far.

Oruko Amutorunwa (Pre-Destined Names) In Yorubaland

                                                           Ibeji (Twins) In Yoruba land, one of the most important things done when a child is born is to give the child a name. This comes after the child’s ritual birth, massage of specific body parts and other rites as well. Names are given to the child by the father, mother, grandparents (paternal and maternal) and some close relatives also. But sometimes, the circumstance of a child’s birth will automatically give the child a name. This name is known as ‘orúko àmútọ̀runwá’ (pre-destined or generic name) in Yorubaland. The most common generic names (orúko àmútọ̀runwá) in Yoruba land are ‘Taiwo‘ and ‘Kehinde‘ (altogether known as Ìbejì) which are given to twins. The first born of the twins is called Táíwò, a shortened form of Tò-aiyé-wò (taste the world) while the last born of the twins is called Kéhìndé which literally means “the last to come”. Contrary to the popular belief that Taiwo, being the first born of the twins, is old

Nearly 200 Togolese workers falsely dismissed by the Chinese company CRBC

Nearly 200 employees of the Chinese company CRBC (China Road and Bridge Corporation) to rehabilitate the roads Lomé-Vogan-Afoin and Lome-Noépé, were falsely dismissed this week. It is following confrontations occurred during the mood swings of the 08 and 09 February.  These workers, very dissatisfied with their dismissal, say they do not stop there. They plan, in the coming days, and together with the leaders of the Union of Workers, Managers, Employees of Public Works and Buildings (SOECTRAB), major actions to get into their right. According to Gavor Kodjo, Secretary General of SOECTRAB who defends the workers dismissed by this Chinese company, the reasons why the Chinese company returns workers on construction sites do not hold water. "Workers are indignant against the very low hourly rate that does not even meet the Collective Interprofessional Convention, long hours of work without rest. They are often assigned to workplaces without being paid for the housing or tra
