African organizations appeal to ECOWAS and au over Togo’s constitutional reform

Their appeal specifically targets actions taken by President Faure Gnassingbé regarding the nation’s fundamental law. This significant move underscores growing regional scrutiny of the Togolese constitutional reform process and its implications for governance and democracy in the West African state.
