Prohibition of Togolese demonstrations in Burkina Faso: Citizen's broom attacks the decision of the Mayor of Ouaga



Togolese residing in Burkina Faso wanted to demonstrate yesterday in the city of Ouagadougou. This, in support of their compatriots who struggle for freedom on the spot in Lomé and several cities of the country. But the municipal authorities of Ouaga have banned the demonstration. A situation denounced by the Balk Citizen movement. Read his statement!



Declaration of the Cuban Broom following the refusal of the town hall to authorize a Pacific demonstration of Togolese nationals living in Burkina Faso

Togolese nationals living in Burkina Faso and who wish to organize a march of support to their compatriots struggling in the country have just been refused this right by the mayor of Ouagadougou. Under the pretext that this demonstration can "create disturbances of public order, between the Togolese nationals in Burkina Faso and even the relations between our two republics", the Ouagadougou mayoralty simply put an end to inadmissibility.

This situation is incomprehensible and unacceptable when one recalls the all-out manifestations of Burkina Faso from outside Burkina Faso during the popular insurrection of 30 and 31 October 2014 and during the coup d'etat of 16 September 2015 to save the Burkina Faso. democracy in the land of honest men.

Le Balai Citoyen, who met with the initiators of this march this week at its headquarters in Ouagadougou for a joint organization, protests against this decision of Ouagadougou town hall, which is neither more nor less than an infringement of freedoms and the freedom of expression of Togolese nationals living in Burkina in particular, and describes this veiled refusal of support for the dictatorship of the liberticidal regime and assassin of President Faure Gnassingbe. This struggle by the Togolese people against the dynastic dictatorship of the Gnassingbe is irreversible.

In any event, the Broom Citizen dares to hope that all obstacles will be lifted quickly for the organization of this event.

Ibi Ugwu (Male Circumcision) In Igbo Land

The act of circumcising babies in Igbo land is an ancient culture and tradition of the Igbo people which has its origin from their traditional religions. “Circumcision is the act of removing female genitalia, or a simple fold of skin (foreskin and prepuce) that covers the head of an un-erect penis”. In ancient times, the Igbos circumcise both male and female children, but as modernization set in, the circumcision or genital mutilation of Igbo female children was stopped while that of male continued till today. The circumcision of male babies (Ibi Ugwu) in Igbo land is done on the 8th day after birth.

Names are given to the child by the father, mother, grandparents (paternal and maternal) and some close relatives also.

The first born of the twins is called Táíwò, a shortened form of Tò-aiyé-wò (taste the world) while the last born of the t...
