Faced with the hot topics of the news loudly borne by the democratic forces, it is rare to hear the presidential party pronounce. Even if one can easily guess that this exercise resembles Herculean work in view of the abysmal failures in the governance of Togo, it is important that the rulers express themselves in order better to deliver the bottom of their thought.
Gilbert Badjilembayena Bawara, Minister of Labor, Civil Service and Administrative Reform, told togobreakingnews, a part of the press, as part of the Union for the Republic (UNIR) party to give his position On political reforms, the Global Political Agreement (APG), protests by the opposition and supposed tensions within the presidential party.
Bawara faces the news
The debate on the APG was of interest to Mr Bawara, who noted with amusement the fixing of certain political actors around this agreement and considers that those who are opportunely today the leaders of this agreement were not necessarily the active craftsmen . For him "the objectives and results have been fully realized. The APG continues to be a moral and political reference "but refuses to make it a dogma because of the changing political landscape.
For him, "it is a sham and a deceit to mislead the public that the APG contains ready-made solutions to the question of political reforms". As for reforms, Bawara asked that the Reform Commission on Reflection be allowed to go to the end of its work in order to carry out the reforms through the channels authorized by the constitution. "The creation of this Commission is in line with the CVJR's recommendations and it enshrines the possibility of a broad debate involving not only political actors, including extra-parliamentary political parties, but all other components and the Countries and even citizens who express themselves freely during the current field tour.
These wide-ranging consultations and debates are likely to provide a comfortable political base and social foundation for the Commission's proposals, but the latter is not a constituent and therefore any adoption of constitutional and institutional reforms will conform to the constitutional provisions. The debate will not be exhausted with the submission of the Commission's proposals, far from it, "he said.
Concerning the reactions of opposition leader Jean-Pierre Fabre on the refusal of the head of state to reply to his letters sent to him, this UNIR executive, said to regret the attitude of Mr. Fabre who had boycotted The debates on the law on the status of the opposition and believes that the President of the ANC missed several occasions to exchange with President Faure Gnassingbé. "We have occasions and republican ceremonies to which it would be desirable for the Togolese people to have the opportunity to see our political class united and gathered beyond political and partisan considerations. The celebration of our Independence Day, painful events such as was the case to pay tribute to our brave soldiers fallen on the field of honor for our collective security in Mali, Exchanges of vows at the end of the year are circumstances in which we must be welded beyond political cleavages and partisan considerations. Unfortunately, these occasions are systematically boycotted by the Leader of the Opposition, contrary to the rules of republican courtesy and in flagrant violation of the provisions of the law he relies on, "he deplores.
The Minister of Civil Service is satisfied with the smooth progress of the last demonstrations of CAP 2015 and the PNP but castigates certain inflammatory and incendiary statements to the vagaries of identity, community or ethnic. "If UNIR feels that there are behaviors and attitudes tending to weaken the Republic, we will mobilize to defend the values of fraternity and tolerance to which we are attached," said the minister. not all ". Regarding the vote of the Diaspora, he finds it legitimate but considers that at present, the conditions are not met to satisfy this demand. Finally, Mr. Bawara said there was no tension at UNIR.
"There are no old or new in the party, and UNIR is rather happy to be able to rely on the rich experience of the elders, the dynamism and enthusiasm of young people," he said.
Bawara makes Bawara
On all subjects there is nothing new if it is not the usual provocations of the one who proclaims at his leisure "personal friend" of Faure Gnassingbe. It is the fact that some were not active artisans of the signing of the APG which prevents its implementation? One can legitimately ask why Bawara speaks of imposture and deceit when the actors believe that the APG has planned everything for political reforms. Are the presidential limitation and the uninominal vote for two (2) rounds claimed by more than 85% of the Togolese according to Afrobarometer not envisaged by the APG? The rest is only subterfuge and dilatory constipants.
In addition, is there a need for the Reflection Commission on reforms and its current tour to find out what reforms Togo needs? Just to see the humiliations suffered by Awa Nana and his followers, it is proof by nine (9) that even the common people understand the political cunning of the regime.
Concerning the correspondence of Mr. Fabre to Faure Gnassingbé, it is very curious that Bawara explains the absence of answers by the refusal of the leader of the opposition to participate in the celebration of the Independence Day and al. In any self-respecting administration, all correspondence is dealt with. In addition, when it comes to the Presidency of the Republic, which refuses to reply to letters from the President of the republic, it is simply political indecency.
On the whole line, Bawara confirmed that the regime thinks only of the preservation of the presidential chair. In the end, one wonders whether it is even necessary to take into account the language blistering of one who is incapable of satisfying the complaints of 200 agents of his ministry.
