Blaise Yao Amoussou-Kpéto gives income to overcome unemployment and poverty


The financial expert Blaise Yao Amoussou-Kpeto, in this publication, contributes in the search for solutions to the problems of unemployment and poverty which take hostage Togolese people, especially youth. Read!



What should be done to enable Togo to have better economic performance with confidence indices at the highest level, a low unemployment rate and a marked reduction in poverty?

Attempts to Respond.

Currently, the business climate in Togo remains sluggish; This explains why private investment lacks dynamism and that the quality of human resources has a lasting impact on the long-term growth prospects of the country.

Togo should adopt a hierarchical set of budgetary and structural reforms to preserve its strengths and meet the challenges of development and poverty reduction.

Togo should fully revert to the uniqueness of the Treasury and use its budgetary revenues to invest in infrastructure projects that will boost its growth potential and encourage foreign investors to invest heavily in the country.

What I see as a priority investment project today is the modern Lomé-Cinkasse railway, which will definitely boost the activities of the autonomous port of Lomé and, in passing, preserve the road network, which is unsatisfactory. But the cost of building the Lomé-Cinkasse railway is in billions of US dollars.

For this, like African countries that have successfully achieved Eurobonds issues such as Ghana ($ 0.750 billion), Senegal ($ 1.1 billion) and Côte d'Ivoire (sovereign debt outstanding for $ 5.7 billion) Billion), Togo must mobilize sovereign borrowing funds over 20-25 years.

In addition to railways, emphasis should be placed on initiatives that enhance growth potential, such as investment in power plants (so as to permanently remove the country from the energy dependency of Ghana and Nigeria), Basic infrastructure, physical and digital infrastructure, and finally, the taking into account of the education of teachers and consequences of children in order to prepare future generations for citizen responsibility and for a more orthodox management of the country.

Ibi Ugwu (Male Circumcision) In Igbo Land

The act of circumcising babies in Igbo land is an ancient culture and tradition of the Igbo people which has its origin from their traditional religions. “Circumcision is the act of removing female genitalia, or a simple fold of skin (foreskin and prepuce) that covers the head of an un-erect penis”. In ancient times, the Igbos circumcise both male and female children, but as modernization set in, the circumcision or genital mutilation of Igbo female children was stopped while that of male continued till today. The circumcision of male babies (Ibi Ugwu) in Igbo land is done on the 8th day after birth. This is done by experts in the act, like midwives and native doctors (in modern day, physicians carry out this operation). During circumcision, the fore skin that covers the head of the penis is cut off and the operated part is treated to heal quickly and to prevent any form of infection. Male circumcision (Ibi Ugwu) takes five to seven day to heal up. Meanwhile, some Igbos circumcis...

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 t...
