GERDDES AFRICA pays tribute to African Union and ECOWAS sanctions against the self made successors of the President GNASSINGBE EYADEMA.

GERDDES AFRICA urges those institutions and International Community to go further by giving Togolese people and their representative organizations the means to definitively get rid of any attempt of dictatorship in this country.

The constitutional order needs to be restored in Togo to rule out definitively in the mentality of our leaders, coups d'Etat and opportunist Constitutions amendments.

GERDDES-Africa, deploring the death of President EYADEMA, refuses to accept the accomplished fact of the coup d'état organised by the togolese military hierarchy and exhorts all togolese democrats to associate with all African intellectual peaceful resistance against such decision.

African Union and ECOWAS must be encouraged by sub-region peoples to never accept such practices of old ages.

GERDDES-Africa call on togolese elite wisdom including the wisdom of the supposed beneficiary of this promotion so that the toglese constitution and European Union mediation remain implemented in order to enable the organisation of democratic, reliable and opened to every one elections.
