Plage ou décharge ? Lomé étouffe sous les déchets plastiques

Le littoral de Lomé est en état d’urgence. Malgré les campagnes de sensibilisation menées par les autorités, les déchets plastiques continuent d’envahir les plages de la capitale, transformant ce qui devrait être une richesse touristique en une véritable décharge à ciel ouvert. La situation est particulièrement alarmante dans la préfecture du Golfe 1, face à l’ancien Hôtel de la Paix, où une seule opération de nettoyage, menée samedi, a permis de retirer près de 2 tonnes de déchets plastiques — un chiffre effarant qui illustre l’ampleur de la pollution.

Bowen: Air Dropping Aid Is a Desperate Act That Won’t End Hunger

Humanitarian expert Bowen asserts that air-dropping aid into Gaza is an act of desperation, not an effective solution. He warns such measures won’t end hunger unless large-scale land-based aid systems are restored.

Dr. Eric Oduro Osae, governance and PFM expert, argues that in light of the Auditor‑General’s 2024 report revealing GH₵18.4 billion in financial irregularities, it’s not just politicians who should be held responsible—but also entrenched technical officers such as finance directors and chief directors. What We FoundSpeaking on JoyNews’ Newsfile in July 2025, Dr. Osae explained that while politicians approve policy decisions, the actual authorisation and execution of financial transactions are carried out by career civil servants.

Discontinuation of UniBank Case Creates Avenue to Loot

He insisted that retrieval of misappropriated funds is not enough. According to Poku: “What we should remember… is that we are now creating an avenue for loot… Because when people realize that you can take enough [and] do anything that you want to do… it is sad.”He added that indictment and prosecution must follow alleged wrongdoing, […]
