Purification: what the oracle said


It is under a fine rain that traditional priests, followers of the sacred forest of Bè and the authorities that the message of the oracle was delivered. Hate, violence, and jealousy must no longer be named among the Togolese. "The oracle was clear: no more provocation in this country. He no longer wants blood on the land of our ancestors, "suggested Nyagblodjro Assiobo the president of the traditional priests of Togo.



"The oracle (ego golosso, name of the oracle) says that the land is defiled and the blood has flowed enough on this earth. Those who give orders and those who execute them are forewarned. Let them know that they are on the ground to protect the populations and not to shoot as they see fit. The banks of the lagoon of Bè are not chosen by chance, the tradition is not improvised. It is the oracle who chose this bank for the ceremonies of this day to appease the souls of those who died by drowning, by hanging, by accident etc. Nobody is unaware of the killings taking place in this lagoon. This ceremony of Egou lolo (dismiss the bad luck) is for this purpose, "explained Nyagblodjro Assiobo.


The priestesses of the sacred forest did not say the opposite for purification. "All those who have taken this water and purified themselves must not return to repeat the same errors. If anyone has something against his brother but has taken that water he does it against his own judgment. "

Tomorrow Friday will be the great day of libations. There will be great ceremonies to be done in the convents. Priests and priestesses have unanimously shown the sign of nature which accepts these sacrifices: the rain that has fallen since yesterday.

Finally, these ceremonies according to the college of the traditional priests must continue, it is on this condition that the andean shades will be appeased. So the authorities are called, if they really want a lasting peace to come back to perfect this act of libation.

                                                           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.

Togo now has its plan to combat land degradation

Land degradation is a reality in Togo. According to figures put forward by the Ministry of the Environment, each year 4.14% of the land (nationally) succumb to the phenomenon. And it is in response to the problem that the Government launched last March, the Program of definition of the national targets on neutrality in land degradation (PDC / NDT). On Thursday in Lomé, environmental experts validated a document that will serve as a blueprint for sustainable land management in Togo. This document, which estimates that 23,500 hectares of land are degraded each year in Togo between 2000 and 2010, has already identified national targets assessed on the basis of indicators such as land use, net productivity or carbon.
