Bawara warns: "Do not pour into the higher bid!"




Gilbert Bawara explains that the mere announcement of the draft constitutional revision is in itself a hand stretched from the government to the opposition for the completion of constitutional and institutional reforms in a spirit of consensus. A step not to be interpreted as a weakness, according to this cacique of the regime of Faure Gnassingbé.



"This demonstrates the Head of State's concern to preserve peace and to avoid the question of reform being used as a pretext and a screen for those who would rather be motivated by the desire to question the cohesion, the desire to living together, peace, security and stability that we need in order to devote ourselves more to the issues of economic development and improvement of the living conditions of the populations, "says Gilbert Bawara, quoted by Togobreakingnews.

The Niamtougou man therefore invites the opposite side to work with philosophy and to ensure that it does not slip into greedy claims.

Gilbert Bawara interprets the latest demonstrations as proof of freedom of expression in Togo, but he is still reassured that there would be an "overwhelming majority" whose interests are above the millions of Togolese who were in the streets. 6 and 7 September, not only in Lomé, but also throughout the country.

"It would be a grave mistake to believe that the will of the President of the Republic stretched out as a weakness. Everyone needs to know that we are in a democracy and in a state of law and that any act that violates the laws, including attempts to attack democratic institutions, may be confronted not only by the vast majority the Togolese who see themselves as guardians and sentinels of democratic values, but also the consequences that the law places on those who act by transgressing the rules that govern society, "he argues.

Gilbert Bawara converted the courage and bravery of the millions of Togolese who risked expressing their rage in the streets despite their own threats and those of the army as evidence of the effectiveness of freedom manifestation and expression in Togo. But he does not say how he interprets the action of a soldier shamelessly beating a citizen, wounding him like a wild beast.

It is also unclear how Gilbert Bawara can justify firing of the army on a population that manifests peacefully and come back and say on the media that these repressed populations are the example of freedom of expression.

                                                           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. 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...
