Arrival at the head of the United Nations Regional Center for Peace and Disarmament (UNREC) in July 2015 in Lomé following the closure of the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) in Togo, Institution for which she was the representative resident in Togo, Ige Olatokounbo bid farewell to this country so dear to her eyes this Wednesday.



And it was to the head of state, Faure Gnassingbé that she went to bid farewell, since at the end of the mission.

"Togo is my country," said the Nigerian at the end of this last audience that Mr Gnassingbé granted him as Director of UNREC.

In her view, the issue of disarmament remained a matter of concern in Africa. And to find solutions, it is always necessary to be in discussion and negotiation with the member states of UNREC.

However, she said she was confident that Togo had taken another step in disarmament with the weapons marking operation.


"Togo has started with us in the project of weapons marking. For us it is a good step, we have an example to share with other countries about the importance of weapons marking so that weapons do not fall back into the hands of terrorists and criminals, She congratulated.

UN agency, UNREC assists countries in peace processes and initiatives in Africa, as well as in arms limitation and disarmament. It also helps member countries to control the proliferation of small arms and light weapons.

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.
