  • Togo: Legislative Elections of July 20131 Radim Tobolka, Univerzita
    Togo: Legislative Elections of July 20131 Radim Tobolka, Univerzita Hradec Králové [email protected] Final draft, 22 April 2014 Since the previous presidential election of 2010, Togolese politics have seen important changes. The legislative elections which took place on July 25, 2013 accelerated this process of change. No violence, or large-scale fraud, was reported either during the vote or the subsequent compilation of results. The elections confirmed the demise of Gilchrist Olympio’s Union des forces de changement (UFC), which was considered the most radical opposition party until its power-sharing deal with President Faure Gnassingbé’s Rassemblement du peuple togolais (RPT) in 2010. Meanwhile, the incumbent Gnassingbé clique remained firmly in power due to the effective performance of their electoral party machine: the newly formed Union pour la République (UNIR). This party secured more than two-thirds (68%, n=62) of the seats in parliament. UNIR’s closest rival was Jean Pierre Fabre’s Alliance nationale pour le changement (ANC) which won 16 seats: a fact that highlights the current Togolese government’s large parliamentary majority. Background Togolese politics under President Faure Gnassingbé continues to follow the same pattern established under the dictatorial regime of his father Eyadéma Gnassingbé (1967-2005). The backbone of Togo’s political establishment is the military where at least two-thirds (65%) of the army are Kabyè, which is the ethnic group of the Gnassingbé family (Toulabor 1999:106–107). France has provided military advisors and logistical support to the Togolese armed forces since the 1963 coup d’état in which Eyadéma Gnassingbé took an active part.

  • Akosombo Brochure
    AKOSOMBO BROCHURE INTRODUCTION It was called Nkonson-konson-bo (a chain of rock). That was the name given to the little known settlement by its inhabitants, who in 1733, had settled at the foot of the gorge formed by the Akwapim and Togo mountain ranges. Nkonson- konson-bo soon became strategically a frontline safe haven of the militant Akwamus, who in retreat after two hundred years of conquest and imperial rule, had sought refuge in the safety provided by the hills and the river Volta It is said that the Chief of the Akwamus made his nephew headman of the community to keep a lookout for their enemies from the north of the river. For nearly two centuries the Akwamus enjoyed the protection, security and peace of the gorge, cultivating the rich fertile land and harvesting the abundance of fish from the river Volta, without any intrusion so to speak, until Sir Albert Kitson, an Australian geologist, who first discovered bauxite in Ghana in 1915, noted Nkonson-konson-bo, as a future hydro-electric dam site. This name latter became corrupted to Akosombo. With this remarkable discovery began the gradual but steady transformation of Akosombo into pre-eminence. World leaders, industrialists, engineers, surveyors and international celebrities from across the globe began to take express interest in what was seen as one of the biggest projects on the African continent. Ghana’s first President, Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah made the implementation of the Volta River Project the cornerstone of his vision for the development and prosperity of the newly independent nation.

  • Analysis of the Technical and Sanitary Constraints of the Traditional Breeding of Guinea Fowl in “Région Des Savanes” of Northern Togo
    Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology 6 (2018) 77-87 doi: 10.17265/2328-2150/2018.01.009 D DAVID PUBLISHING Analysis of the Technical and Sanitary Constraints of the Traditional Breeding of Guinea Fowl in “Région des Savanes” of Northern Togo Yao Lombo 1, 2, Kokou Tona 2 and Bèdibètè Bonfoh 1 1. Centre de Recherche Agronomique de la Savane Sèche (CRASS), Institut Togolais de Recherche Agronomique (ITRA), Lomé BP 1163, Togo 2. Laboratoire des Sciences et Techniques de Production Avicoles, Centre d’Excellence Regionale des Sciences Aviaires (CERSA), Ecole Supérieure d’Agronomie (ESA), Université de Lomé, Lomé BP 1515, Togo. Abstract: A survey to determine the causes of mortality of guinea fowl and the technical and sanitary constraints of the traditional breeding of guinea fowl was carried out among 106 poultry farmers from the Savannah Region in North Togo. The survey also made it possible to identify the breeding constraints and the endogenous practices of rearing of the guinea fowl. The results obtained from the investigations are: (i) the high rate (69.81%) of illiterates is not conducive to the definition or control of plans for prophylaxis and rationing. (ii) Breeders are unaware of disease-resistant strains of guinea fowl. (iii) Guinea fowl breeding starts with traditional methods, with 33.96% of the breeders who leave the guinea fowl in the wilderness and 13.21% who breed them in conflagration pell-mell. (iv) The formulations of food rations in order to satisfy the nutritional requirements of guinea fowl are virtually non-existent. The sources of proteins sometimes supplemented are only termites.
