A new protest at the University of Lomé this morning


The Togolese League of Student Rights (LTDE) announces a General Assembly this morning at the University of Lomé. The students "wonder" that instead of satisfying their demands, the University armed the university police. Dodzi Kokoroko would not have learned from the last student demonstrations or worse in the "gabegie". Read the press release:



The Togolese League of Student Rights (LTDE) learned with sadness and bitterness that the President of the university at his so-called FDD and FASEG student awards ceremony offered to the baptized university guards Police Academy of truncheons, 4 * 4 cars, motorcycles, handcuffs and similar tools.

The LTDE is surprised that these millions are spent to equip these guards whose role it is in the arrest, bullying and torture of students on June 14, 15 and 16, 2017, when these funds could be used to equip all Amphis and classrooms of WIFI connection or satisfy a good part of the demands that we pose (renovation of the toilets, water in the university cities, sound of the rooms and amphis, etc.)

This act of the President of the university shows sufficiently that he did not learn any lesson from the consequences of the militarization of the campus by him and proves that the latter still armed his guards to commit abuses and violence on the students.

Faced with this increasingly worrying situation, the Togolese League of Student Rights (LTDE), decided not to endorse the budgetary mismanagement of the university, the mismanagement of the assets of this university by the KPEGBA-KOKOROKO duo and The arrogance and dictatorship of the university authorities demands:

-The resignation of the University President and the Second Vice-President of the University in the event that they refuse to apologize to university students that they have unjustly been bullied, abused, bludgeoned, injured, Gassed and arrested,

- the resignation of AFANOU Kossivi (chief of the guards), chief executing sadistic decisions of the Presidency of the university.
On the other hand, in order to put these various demands into practice and to ask the minister to satisfy our legitimate demands and finally to show our solidarity with President SATCHIVI (Prof KOKOROKO forbids him to compose and set foot on campus), the Togolese League of Student Rights , The Student and Togolese Coordination of Togo (CEET) and the conscious Delegates of the university agrees all students and conscious delegates to an urgent AG of protest this Friday 07 July 2017 before the amphi 600.

NO TO DICTATURE AT CAMPUS
YES TO THE IMPROVEMENT OF OUR CONDITIONS OF LIFE, STUDY AND EVALUATION.

Done at Lomé, on 06 July 2017

For the union,
The Secretary General,
Basile AMENUVEVE

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...
