    ECOWAS Peace & Security Report

    ISSUE 10 | OCTOBER 2014 ECOWAS Peace & Security Report Politicians talk past each other as Togo’s 2015 elections approach Introduction While the presidential election in Togo is scheduled for the first quarter of 2015, politicians have still not reached agreement on the implementation of the policy reforms of the 2006 Global Political Agreement. The events of recent months illustrate the seriousness of the political impasse on these issues, which are central to the governance of the country. While the presidential election in Togo is scheduled for the first quarter of 2015, politicians have still not reached agreement on the implementation of the policy reforms of the 2006 Global Political Agreement. The events of recent months illustrate the seriousness of the political impasse on these issues, which are central to the governance of the country. On 30 June 2014, the National Assembly rejected the bill on constitutional and institutional reforms that had been tabled a week earlier by the Government.1 This bill proposed limiting the presidential term to two five-year periods, allowing a two-round presidential election, creating a Senate, reforming the Constitutional Court, defining the prerogatives of the Prime Minister and instituting new eligibility criteria for the presidency. This rejection reflects the failure of the so-called ‘Togo Telecom’ political dialogue, which ended in June 2014. The dialogue failed to reach consensus on the implementation of constitutional and institutional reforms, some of which concerned preparations for the 2015 election. For eight years, the conditions for implementing these reforms have regularly been put back on the agenda without any significant progress being observed.

The control of a public health disease is rightly considered by medical authorities as a health priority, especially when it j.s severely disabling for a considerable part of the population. The health priority becomes a national imperative when such a disease prevents the socioeconomic development of many areas 1n the country. When it extends beyond the borders of one country and the solution to the problem of public health lies in activities involving several countries, it ls necessary to arrive at a regional control. The inter-country cooperatlon can then appeal for in*.ernational aid proportional to the scope of the activity to be carried out. 2. Qnchocerciasis control corresponds to the above outline. This concerns bringing under control a severely disabling disease, river blindness, that is widespread in some of the African regions. This control will prompt the populations to reclaim lands that had been abandoned in the past and this will make it possible to improve the socj-oeconomic development of several countries. 3. It was with this end in vj.ew that four international agencies of the United Nations systems (UNDP, FAO, the Wor1d Bank, WHO), supported by a group of donors, decided in 7974 to assist seven West African countries (Benin, Burkj-na Faso, C6te d'Ivoire, Ghana, Ma1i, Niger and Togo) affected by onchocerclaisis.
