The Togolese Dictatorship

The Unbearable Cry of My Nation: Exposing the Togolese Dictatorship 

For decades, the world has turned a blind eye to the plight of my beloved Togo. Ensnared in the iron grip of a ruthless dictatorship for over fifty years, the Togolese people have suffered in silence.


My book, "The Togolese Dictatorship," is not just a historical record; it's a desperate plea, a cry for help from the depths of a nation's despair.


Within its pages, I lay bare the chilling reality we endure. A legacy of violence, meticulously crafted by a regime that thrives on oppression, casts a long shadow over our lives. Peaceful protests are crushed with brutal force, the very concept of democracy a cruel mockery, and human rights violations stain our soil.


The international community, seemingly paralyzed by self-interest, watches from the sidelines as our freedoms are systematically dismantled. Their silence rings out like a deafening betrayal, echoing the cries of countless Togolese yearning for a life of dignity and basic human rights.

My book is not merely an indictment of the regime's brutality; it's a call to action. It compels the world to confront uncomfortable truths:

  • Can we, in good conscience, champion human rights while turning a blind eye to the suffering of the Togolese people?

  • Are economic and strategic interests worth the price of innocent lives sacrificed on the altar of tyranny?

  • How long will we tolerate a regime that tramples on international law and disregards basic human decency?

To the world leaders, policymakers, and those with the power to influence global affairs, I urge you to heed this urgent plea:
  • Raise your voices in condemnation: Break the deafening silence and denounce the human rights abuses perpetrated by the Togolese regime.

  • Impose meaningful consequences: Target the regime's leaders and their enablers with sanctions that cripple their ability to inflict further suffering.

  • Amplify the voices of dissent: Support the brave Togolese activists, journalists, and human rights defenders who fight tirelessly for freedom and justice.

  • Demand a path towards democracy: Insist on credible elections, the release of political prisoners, and a genuine process of democratic transition.

"The Togolese Dictatorship" is not just a book; it's a beacon of hope, a testament to the unwavering spirit of the Togolese people. We yearn to breathe free, to live in a nation governed by the rule of law, not the whims of a tyrant.



Each chapter is a vivid snapshot of our painful history, covering aspects from the invasion of lands to the controversial elections, corruption, and the dictatorship's impact on our economy. It is a call to action, a plea for justice, and a demand for change.

To those who have supported me on this journey, your unwavering encouragement is deeply appreciated. I extend a special dedication to the oppressed individuals worldwide, urging them to hold on, for courage will prevail, and joy will reign supreme.


Join me in amplifying the cries of the unheard. Together, let us ensure that the world hears our silent scream, and together, let us pave the way for a brighter future for Togo, a future bathed in the light of liberty and justice for all.

Let us stand together, in solidarity with the Togolese people, until the day every voice, once silenced, rises in unison to proclaim: "Togo is free!"
