Togo: Call for Integrity Over Power Longevity

Dans une tribune engagée, le journaliste togolais Rodrigue Ahégo critique avec vigueur la tendance à mesurer le succès politique uniquement à la durée passée au pouvoir. Il y voit une dérive profonde de la vie publique, marquée par une quête de longévité dépourvue de sens et de valeurs. S’appuyant sur une réflexion attribuée à Abraham Lincoln, il rappelle que l’essentiel ne réside pas dans la quantité d’années vécues, mais dans leur contenu. Dans ce cadre, il dénonce une scène politique togolaise dominée, selon lui, par des logiques de conservation du pouvoir plutôt que par une véritable volonté de servir le bien commun. L’auteur évoque une crise morale où les institutions et les pratiques sociales seraient fragilisées par des comportements opportunistes. Il estime que la longévité politique est devenue une stratégie de maintien, au détriment de l’éthique et de la responsabilité. […]

À la disparition d’Abass Kaboua, Gerry Taama livre un témoignage empreint d’émotion, mêlant souvenirs personnels, divergences passées et regrets, pour saluer une figure politique singulière. Un dernier hommage à une personnalité marquante Dans son message, Gerry Taama évoque leur dernière interaction, remontant au 8 janvier 2019, lors d’une session parlementaire. Il révèle qu’ils ont partagé plusieurs années à l’Assemblée nationale sans réellement échanger, malgré leur proximité physique. Une situation qu’il décrit avec une certaine distance, mais aussi lucidité. Il reconnaît que des tentatives de réconciliation ont existé, sans aboutir, sans qu’il puisse en expliquer précisément les raisons. Il admet toutefois que leurs caractères affirmés ont pu jouer un rôle dans cette relation complexe. Une relation faite de tensions et de respect Le témoignage revient également sur un épisode marquant en 2013, lors d’une réunion politique, où un affrontement verbal avait […]

Is Nigeria Cursed, or Are We the Curse? — Obi Laments Over Insecurity

Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, has decried the country’s worsening insecurity in a heartfelt post. Listing abductions and attacks over the past ten days—including kidnappings of Defence officials, students, worshippers, and farmers—Obi argues Nigeria’s “chaos” is due to collective leadership failures that have allowed lawlessness and violence to thrive. Obi claims no one, not even those tasked with security, is safe and warns that leaders have chosen “comfort over courage, politics over people, and power over purpose.” He insists the tragedies facing Nigerians—school abductions, attacks on worshippers, and erosion of democratic institutions—are not inevitable, but the result of failed governance. Calling for urgent reform, Obi says Nigeria must rise above indifference and excuses, and leaders must protect every community, child, and citizen. “You deserve safety, you deserve peace,” he concludes, urging Nigerians to demand a competent, compassionate […]
