Nathaniel Olympio raises the cone of shadow over the events of Kara

The meeting organized by the Togolese Party in Kara was not at all a political meeting. It was rather a citizen action initiated by the political party and all the steps had been taken by the party of Alberto Olympio to do things in the rules, according to the ample explanations provided by the acting president of the party, Nathaniel olympio.


"Understanding poverty to get out of it"; This was the theme under which the Togolese Party was to keep the young people in the conference room of the Kara Center for Social Affairs. These types of training organized by the party of Alberto Olympio since its entry on the political chessboard, "aim to strengthen the capacities of the various components of Togolese society; Students, ordinary citizens, civil society organizations, enterprises, institutions, political parties, so that they are better equipped to understand and participate in full knowledge of the public social, economic and political debates "

Beyond the administrative formalities, "the prosecutor of the Republic, the gendarmerie, the police and even the bishop were informed of the holding of this formation" to Kara according to the revelations of Nathaniel Olympio on the airwaves of nana fm.

Unfortunately, all these steps prevented the disembarkation at the scene of the meeting of a unit of gendarmes hooded equipped with riot equipment, on the orders of the prefect of Kozah, Didier Bakali Badibawou.

The rest is known. Since then, it has been an outcry from condemnations of both civil society and politicians. "This is particularly disturbing. Whenever a political activity is planned by an opposition actor in the city of Kara, it happens that the prefect is doing everything in his power to prohibit the demonstration, "deplored the president of the Togolese Party .


For other civil society organizations, the actions of Prefect Bakali, former bodyguard of Faure Gnassingbé, tend to erect Kara in an area prohibited to the opposition political class, establishing a regionalist and ethnocentric spirit in a country in full swing Reconciliation process.
