Bernard Mornah, a former Chairman of the People’s National Convention (PNC), has expressed his view that there is no justification for Faure Gnassingbe to remain in power in Togo since he has been president since 2005.
In some communities, no elections were conducted in 2005, yet Gnassingbe was declared president. Questions arise about what actions ECOWAS and Togo are taking to address this situation, and how we can tolerate it.
President Salle, who is immune to criticism from the African Union, raises concerns. Additionally, those who aspire to succeed Alassane Ouattara face mysterious deaths.
Gnassingbe is pursuing a third term, and Cameroon’s president visits Togo during national holidays, returning when he wins elections. The role of the African Union in this matter is unclear.
Equatorial Guinea presents another concern, as the president has appointed his son as vice president, causing turmoil.
