He said Togo had come a long way and it is his prayer that all the stakeholders would harness the gains by respecting the sanctity of choice, and protecting the integrity of the elections.

The former President’s sentiments were relayed to President Faure Gnassingbe by a delegation of Traditional Chiefs and senior officials of the former President’s office who called on the Togolese leader at the behest of the former President on Tuesday.

The delegation which was led by Togbi Gbordzor III, Dufia of Woe and Dusifiaga of the Anlo State and included Togbi Hodzi Dunyo, Togbi Tamakloe, Dr. Donald Agumenu and Togolese journalist, Jean Andjaou were in Togo to also commiserate with President Gnassingbe on the demise of his brother, Emmanuel Gnassingbe.The delegation also discussed regional integration and security within the sub-region, with Dr. Donald Agumenu, aide to the former President, stating that former President Rawlings took matters of intercultural cohesion, justice and respect for human dignity and the rule of law very seriously.

Agumenu said the emergence of insurgency and militant activities within the sub region, if not contained could further undermine sub-regional security, democratic values and socio-economic development. Recent separatist agitations in the Volta Region of Ghana were also discussed.

President Faure Gnassingbe in receiving the delegation expressed his delight and gratitude that the former President had sent a delegation to wish the people of Togo well and also commiserate with him on the loss of his brother. He also expressed his warm gratitude to Madam Victoria Agbotui, mother of the former President for her words of sympathy.

President Gnassingbe described former President Rawlings as a man of integrity he had a lot of respect for. He also took time to outline the constitutional reforms the country had gone through and its preparedness for the upcoming elections on February 22, 2020.

The meeting also discussed the concerns raised by Emeritus Archbishop Kossi Philippe Fanoko Kpodzro of Lome, who called on former President Rawlings in Accra recently to express concerns about the socio-political issues in his country and how that might adversely affect the conduct of the elections.

President Gnassingbe assured the delegation and all citizens of Togo as well as ECOWAS leaders that he will do nothing under his leadership to undermine the peace and security of his country during the elections.

Senior officials who joined President Gnassingbe for the meeting included Chief of Staff of the Cabinet, Mrs. Victoire S. Dogbe-Tomegah, Speaker of Parliament, Mrs. Yawa Tsegan and the Ambassador of Togo to Ghana, Lt. Colonel Awoki Panassa.
