Great banditry in Adidogomé: Wonyomé and Apédokoé Gbomamé transformed into drug ghettos



Lately there has been a phenomenon of great banditry in certain outlying districts of the city of Lomé, namely Wonyomé and Apédokoé Gbomamé and its surroundings, which unfortunately escapes the control of the security forces. A whole network of drug trafficking is developing in the ghettos of these neighborhoods in recent times, with their sequels of theft and other crimes against the peaceful populations of the corners.



They are young people between the ages of 25 and 35 who have formed a network. When you see them, most dress well. They give the impression that they are people of good character, which also allows them to easily scam the honest people they meet on their way. They live in ghettos located in the caves of the neighborhoods where their illicit activities take place. They are seen wandering around the neighborhoods during the day without doing anything. They have no occupation, but are at ease more than an official who honestly receives his salary.

Customers have them. And they belong to all classes. The latter know the nooks and crannies of these shantytowns that house these sellers of "herbs". Sometimes, They use the goods on the spot, which makes the residents unwell. But these honest citizens who want to be at peace with them, can not react to stop these bandits in these slips, for fear of reprisals. Because they are ready to attack the lives of anyone who opposes their activity or their way of life.

For example, about a year ago, the populations of Apedokoé Gbomame had taken their courage in both hands and decided to clean up the neighborhood, since in the meantime the flights had grown. One night the people had organized a sweep in the heart of which they chased these bandits from these slums and beat up those of them who are reputed. They were obliged to intervene in this way because already at 8 pm, No one could take the road that passes the Presbyterian Church of Apedokoé Gbomame on the way to the Vival Rocher Hotel.

Every day, passers-by were stripped of everything they had on them at that place. This could not continue, thought the neighborhood youth who managed to free this place. But the height, these traffickers and bandits of highway resumed services a few months later. This is witnessed by a young photographer named Honoré Dom found dead in a bag of jute on 14 August 2016.

It is the place to question the Ministry of Security and Civil Protection and the authorities of the Police and the National Gendarmerie To look into those drug ghettos that are born in these neighborhoods of Wonyomé and Apédokoé Gbomamé.

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.

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. According to the Secretary General of the Ministry of Environment and Forest Resources, Sama Boundjouw, these targets and their measures to be validated will become guidelines for any actor involved in the fight against land degradation in Togo during the next twelve
