Gilchrist Olympio calls on Faure Gnassingbe to step down in 2020

The National President of the Union of Forces for Change (UFC), Gilchrist Olympio, through a meeting with the press this morning in his residence (meeting that is still taking place today), expressed his support for the Togolese people fighting for his release.





Obviously, the son of the first president of Togo is disappointed with the agreement RPT / UFC signed in 2010. The party with the emblem of the red palm has agreed to collaborate with the regime, in order to make reforms and put the country back on rails. But this project was only a failure.

"The UFC has a disappointing record in the RPT-UFC deal, and the RPT / UNIR has planted the seeds of despair," Gilchrist Olympio said this morning. Through subterfuges, the regime has managed to roll the former historical opponent in the flour.

For Mr. Olympio, Togo would be otherwise if the current regime had come to power under normal conditions. "Let's have the courage to recognize that if Faure Gnassingbe had come to power by standards,

After denouncing the violence exerted by the regime of Faure Gnassingbe on the demonstrators with his bare hands, he offered his condolences to the bereaved families and paid tribute to all those who have paid with their lives since 19 August.

"Ufc deplores the violence whatever the justifications.Nothing today would justify an irresponsible recourse to violence Let us avoid in Togo having to relearn in the blood Let's take the extended hand of the friends of Togo, to negotiate", a added Gilchrist Olympio.

For appeasement, he "asks the relaxation of those arrested in the context of the demonstrations and special attention must be given to the city of Sokode".

Gilchrist Olympio gives 4 pillars that will bring back true peace in the country. For him, the RPT / UNIR regime must accept the return to the fundamentals of the 1992 Constitution, Faure Gnassingbé must agree not to run in 2020, the opposition must be united and develop a clear and responsible project and prepare for the competition. idea, the partners must help the political class to prepare credible elections.

In conclusion, Gilchrist Olympio asks Faure Gnassingbé to leave power in 2020.

  2. Togolese cannot trust Faure and his parties. If he cannot honored the part signed in 2006. It implies that the People of Togo cannot trust him again because he can change the provisions of the constitution like his father did.
    The most important decision that he can take now is to reinstate C92 and relinquish power immediately.

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. This is done by experts in the act, like midwives and native doctors (in modern day, physicians carry out this operation). During circumcision, the fore skin that covers the head of the penis is cut off and the operated part is treated to heal quickly and to prevent any form of infection. Male circumcision (Ibi Ugwu) takes five to seven day to heal up. Meanwhile, some Igbos circumcis...

                                                           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...
