Prohibition of Togolese demonstrations in Burkina Faso: Citizen's broom attacks the decision of the Mayor of Ouaga



Togolese residing in Burkina Faso wanted to demonstrate yesterday in the city of Ouagadougou. This, in support of their compatriots who struggle for freedom on the spot in Lomé and several cities of the country. But the municipal authorities of Ouaga have banned the demonstration. A situation denounced by the Balk Citizen movement. Read his statement!



Declaration of the Cuban Broom following the refusal of the town hall to authorize a Pacific demonstration of Togolese nationals living in Burkina Faso

Togolese nationals living in Burkina Faso and who wish to organize a march of support to their compatriots struggling in the country have just been refused this right by the mayor of Ouagadougou. Under the pretext that this demonstration can "create disturbances of public order, between the Togolese nationals in Burkina Faso and even the relations between our two republics", the Ouagadougou mayoralty simply put an end to inadmissibility.

This situation is incomprehensible and unacceptable when one recalls the all-out manifestations of Burkina Faso from outside Burkina Faso during the popular insurrection of 30 and 31 October 2014 and during the coup d'etat of 16 September 2015 to save the Burkina Faso. democracy in the land of honest men.

Le Balai Citoyen, who met with the initiators of this march this week at its headquarters in Ouagadougou for a joint organization, protests against this decision of Ouagadougou town hall, which is neither more nor less than an infringement of freedoms and the freedom of expression of Togolese nationals living in Burkina in particular, and describes this veiled refusal of support for the dictatorship of the liberticidal regime and assassin of President Faure Gnassingbe. This struggle by the Togolese people against the dynastic dictatorship of the Gnassingbe is irreversible.

In any event, the Broom Citizen dares to hope that all obstacles will be lifted quickly for the organization of this event.

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

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
