UNIR invites Faure Gnassingbé to "whistle the end of recess"



On Saturday, the ruling Union For the Republic party mobilized its activists in the streets. From Tsévié to Dapaong, the blue party has taken to the streets, even in places like Tchamba or Kara where, according to the government, no political demonstration should take place until there are "supposed lost weapons".


 If from the beginning of the crisis, the party in power swore by dialogue for, he said, promote "peace", it is no longer question. UNIR now clings to the referendum, according to the banners brandished by militants led by party officials, most of whom are members of the government, from the prime minister to the president of the National Assembly.

And yet, the UNIR party also promised a dozen appeasement measures, including the expansion of political prisoners to encourage opposition to the talks. By announcing the revision of the electoral lists, and through the national march of 13 January, the UNIR party has shown that it is in another logic: the Referendum which will sound the "end of recess", as these statements:

"Our republican vision, on the basis of social cohesion and living together, leads us to ask the Head of State to whistle the end of recess," said activist Afi Magnon during her presentation in Tsévié, taken over by the party's communication service.

The same source reports that the general commissioner of the Togolese Revenue Agency (OTR), the activist Emmanuel Kodjo Adédzé, also a member of the Prayer Circle of the Head of State, responded favorably to this requirement of the mass in these terms : "You whistled the end of recess. You have just made it clear to the Head of State that we are going to the referendum. We will transmit your complaints to President Faure.

Meanwhile, the opposition that held its rally in Lome, sent a message to power in these words: "Let him hold his referendum and he will see if that is not what will precipitate his fall", a statement opposition leader Jean-Pierre Fabre against Faure Gnassingbé.

Clearly, the socio-political crisis that has lasted for 5 months, still has good days ahead!

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

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.

They are often assigned to workplaces without being paid for the housing or tra
