Komi Klasou announces a lifetime mandate for Faure Gnassingbé

                                               Komi Selom Klassou, Prime Minister

A return to the constitution of 1961 under the system of the presidential mandate of 7 years, renewable for life; it is the will of a government "resolutely engaged in the project of reforms under the leadership of the head of state" as the motions of the ruling party chant. But according to the head of the government, this was not Faure Gnassingbe's initial plan, it was just because the opposition refused to implement the reforms.



Komi Klassou in Notsè on Sunday, was clear on the issue of reforms. No retroactivity of the law, the counters are set to zero and Faure Gnassingbe will have two new mandates, or the regime will "impose" the reign for life with a return to the constitution according to the independences (1961).

In short, there was a dialogue in 2014 between the parliamentary parties, which dealt with articles 50 and 60, on limiting the number of presidential terms and the voting system. Here a part of the opposition had demanded retroactivity, hence the misunderstanding pretext in a motion, thus taunting its audience that the opposition would be at the origin of the status quo on the subject of the reforms.

And yet, Faure Gnassingbe has always claimed his desire to make the reforms, constantly investing in commissions and workshops, supposedly to refine a project of scientific and consensual reforms. The same regime which refuses to focus the debate on a person, comes to demand that Faure Gnassingbe still presents for two (02) mandates, or one does not make reforms

"the President of the Republic is elected by vote for seven (2): the President shall be elected by the first-past-the-post system. has hammered Komi Klassou in Notsè, quoting the constitution of 1961 in which he finds henceforth and suddenly interest.

This speech confirms that from the APG to the CVJR via the workshop of the HCRRUN on the reforms in July 2016, without forgetting the famous and recent commission of Mrs. Awa-Nana Daboya, Faure Gnassingbé would have orchestrated a diversion (fed on dozens of lives lost during demonstrations), billions of taxpayers squandered to the happiness of state tourist escapades disguised as reforms.

True to the Mi'kmaq game, the Head of the Government in accordance with "the firm instructions of the Head of State", wanted to dribble the public again in a semblance of call for dialogue.

When called to dialogue, it is with a well-established agenda that an invitation is sent to the opposing party, said Tikpi Atchadam leader of the PNP last week.

The UNIR party and the government synchronized, talk about dialogue without ever taking the initiative. They are running towards the referendum, other elections, to perpetuate the cycle of elections-protests-repressions and deaths of men-opaque governance-elections!

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. 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...

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...
