Fear on Nyita village in Akoumapé canton



In Nyita, a village in the Akoumape county (Vo prefecture), Mitsoayé Kossivi Vidjin, a fallen traditional leader, is accused of intimidating, threatening and abusing in order to keep "his" throne.


 The village of Nyita is going through a delicate period of its history.
Having become the traditional chief of the locality in questionable conditions, Mitsoayé Kossivi Vidji loses his crown because condemned by the Supreme Court "to three years of imprisonment released from reprieve" to be the instigator of a murder.

He is therefore deprived of his authority in accordance with law n ° 2007-002 of 8 January 2007 on the traditional chiefdom and status of traditional chiefs in Togo, and its implementing decree n ° 2016-028 / PR of 11 March 2016 in its articles 32, 33 and 34, say its detractors.

The customary council meets and replaces it with Yao Anani, who claims to be the founding family of Nyita. But the fallen man multiplies the maneuvers to preserve his "power". It creates a situation of tension in the village that led to violence on March 14 and 16 last. Young people in the pay of the one who is condemned by the Justice brutalized and badly wounded certain people considered at the center of the contest of the authority of their mentor.

In front of the media yesterday, the Nyita Customary Council and the Committee of Reflection and Action for the Promotion of Human Rights (CRAPH) have attracted "the attention of the opinion in relation to this situation of violence maintained under the effect of corruption, which is likely to dangerously undermine the democratic process in our country. "

The two entities urge the Ministry of Territorial Administration, Decentralization and Local Authorities to shed light on these events through its "competent services". And to hand over the decree of official recognition "to the new leader whose legality and legitimacy do not suffer any restriction".

                                                           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.

John XII: The Pope who turned the Vatican to a Whorehouse

Octavianus was only 18 years old when he ascended the Papacy of the Roman Catholic Church and became Pope John XII on December 16, 955. He was the only son of Duke Alberic II (932–954) of Spoleto, then ruler of Rome. Alberic, before his death in 954, made Roman nobles swear at St. Peter's altar that they would make his son, Octavianus, pope at the first vacancy. Since the leaders loved the dying father, they kept their word to him and elected Octavianus as the 130th Roman Catholic Pope succeeding Pope Agapetus II after the pope’s death on November 8, 955. Octavianus adopted the apostolic name of John XII. He was the third pontiff to take a regnal name upon elevation to the papal chair; the first being Pope John II (533–535), whose birth name was Mercurius and the second, Pope John III (561–574), whose birth name was Catelinus. Right from the start, in relation to secular issues, the new pope issued his directives under the name of Octavianus, while in all matters relating t...
