Yark Damehame's concerned about " threats"



The synchronized march of the militants and supporters of the Pan-African Nationalist Party (PNP) this Saturday, August 19, are viewed by the government. The Minister of Security and Civil Protection, Yark Damehame in a campaign of demobilization against a background of threat.



Despite the press conference held on Thursday by the Ministry of Security and Protection, Territorial Administration, Decentralization and Local Government, in which both authorities wanted to impose itineraries to follow " Marchers "on Saturday, August 19, the PNP and its leaders maintain their program. And remind their activists that the rendezvous will be peaceful and non-violent.

Yark Damehame creates a particular tension around these manifestations by his statements. The latter, during the meeting with media professionals, said that if his troops were to shoot, they would reply. How can a person who is also a minister be able to make that point? Does the PNP and its militants have weapons? Why are not those who have them arrested?

As if that were not enough, he continued the warnings on the radios this morning to demotivate the potential "walkers" here, threatening the intrepid ones there. Yet the objective of the demonstrations of Tikpi Atchadam and its continuation is only the return to the Constitution of 1992 and the vote of Togolese foreigners.

The emotions of the Minister of Security and Civil Protection show that the Togolese regime is not what blind repression of the police forces on demonstrators with their bare hands believe. Has fear changed its camp?

                                                           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.

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...
