Ablekuma North: EC to Re‑run Election in 19 Polling Stations

On July 2, 2025, the Electoral Commission (EC) announced a partial re‑run of the Ablekuma North parliamentary election, to be held on July 11, 2025, across 19 of the constituency’s 37 polling stations. Why Only 19 Polling Stations? The decision followed multiple meetings between the EC, NDC, and NPP—initially on June 12 and again on July 1.

Scale & Humanitarian Impact The agency was stripped of 90% of its staff, from over 10,000 to just under 300, with 83% of its programs canceled. Health initiatives like PEPFAR and malaria control, credited with saving tens of millions of lives, remain under threat—experts project up to 14 million additional deaths by 2030 […]

Tricycles : Une Bombe à Retardement sur les Routes Togolaises ?

Tricycles au Togo : Une Pratique Hors Contrôle qui Met des Vies en Péril Conçus à l’origine pour le transport de marchandises, les tricycles motorisés — très répandus au Togo — sont de plus en plus utilisés à des fins inappropriées, notamment pour transporter des passagers. Une dérive dangereuse qui alimente une hausse préoccupante des accidents de la route. Transport illégal de passagers : une pratique répandue Sur les routes de la périphérie de Lomé ou sur l’axe Kpalimé, il n’est pas rare de voir ces engins transporter plusieurs passagers entassés sur des piles de bagages, dans des conditions totalement interdites par le code de la route. Ces chargements excessifs, souvent mal arrimés, altèrent la stabilité du véhicule et augmentent considérablement les risques d’accident.
