Lomé honored the memory of the missing humorists!


On the grounds of Forever (Lomé-Tokoin), candles in hand, the Togolese met on Monday evening to honor the memory of the icons of culture tragically disappeared in a traffic accident on Sunday.


Among the participants in this tribute ceremony were families, relatives and artists. This call was launched by an artists' association. With tight hearts and many tearful faces, the Togolese watched a Monday evening in memory of the young people who had these tricks to snatch a smile from the most bruised hearts.

Earlier in the day, Ousmane, one of the 6 victims of the tragic accident was taken to his last home in the central region.

As a reminder, a team of 6 Togolese, mainly comedians were killed Sunday, in a terrible accident in Tchaloudè on the national No. 1. They came back from Kara where they presented the night of laughter. Of the six victims are Agbasco and Folo who are no longer to be presented for their art.

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...
