Demonstrators vote on Faure Gnassingbé's departure




Many of them give their views on the political situation in the country. These Togolese people met in Bè-Gakpoto, one of the starting points of the opposition demonstrations this morning, want only one thing: the return to the 1992 Constitution in its original form or the departure of Faure Gnassingbé. They say they are not afraid of military intimidation.



Yao Kouma: "The march of yesterday organized by the Togolese opposition was, for me, a satisfaction. I know that some Togolese still hesitate to join the fight because they are afraid of armed soldiers to the teeth that are posted in all the corners where the demonstrations take place. But we, these kinds of intimidation maneuver do not make us shudder. Yesterday people came out, but I think it would be better if the mobilization was even stronger. I am happy that the opposition is calling us to walk next week. It is also a pride for me to fight alongside my compatriots to free this country from the claws of the Gnassingbe clan. If I do not walk, who will walk in my place. I am ready to walk every day until victory. And I call, at the same time,

Amouzouvi Mawunéfomi: "The fight we are fighting today is not the same as today. On September 6th and 7th, we walked here in Gakpoto. The mobilization was strong. And the whole world knew that something is happening in Togo. We want a new independence. It is our obligation to fight for the future of our descendants. By the grace of God, this country taken hostage for fifty years will regain its freedom. There are some Togolese, I do not know if they are hypnotized by the regime, who say that this struggle for political alternation in Togo does not interest them. By the time we got here, they sadly went about their business. After, it's to say that it's not right, business does not work any more and it's total slump. So, I would like to take this opportunity to appeal to all Togolese to take part in these opposition demonstrations. No one will come from nowhere to free us. This struggle is for us. Even if leaders do not call us, it is our duty to demonstrate for a better future for our children. In the name of Jesus, in a short time, Faure, himself, will return his apron. The invincible popular struggle. Let's all leave together to make Faure Gnassingbe leave and his clique "

Tata Sévérine: "The demonstration yesterday was satisfactory. Mobilization is considerable. If at each demonstration the mobilization is as strong as that of yesterday, I am sure that Faure will bow and satisfy the demands of the people. There are still people who are at home, they are afraid to show up. And yet they are in the same situation as we are. We only want change. I am ready to walk until this regime gets off. I will walk until my death if I do not have the satisfaction of my claims. Besides, I do not walk for the opposition. I walk for myself, for my children and for the people.

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...
