The HSGF is a peaceful foundation since 1994 to lead the voice of WTL to be recognized as a nation among nations of the 🌍 as it supposed to. #PEACEACTIVISM
The Western Togoland Governing Council's position on the visit of the President of the Federal Republic of Germany to Ghana.
The constant attempts by Ghanaian government to turn the eyes of the Germans away from the Togoland territory is an evil agenda.
@GermanyDiplo
Western Togoland to British Togoland to Trans-Volta Togoland to Volta Region
This is what we faced since 1914 after France and Britain unnecessary intervention in our lives. The world must not see the obnoxious 1956 plebiscite as an end to the injustice done us.
For many Unrepresented Nations and Peoples, place names are not just geography, they carry history, identity, and belonging.

@S_OkudzetoAblak You open a crater of history
Tell the world what discussion went on b/n British and Dr.Nkrumah from 1950-1956 on the future of British Togoland?
Was the 1956 plebiscite for Togoland to be integrated or to be in Union with the "independent Gold Coast"?
Cc: @SenateForeign
@UNGeneva But ours was negotiated against us. Only the interest of Britain and Dr. Kwame Nkrumah was prioritized not even a thought was given to the report by Mr. Terazi one of the mission to Togoland nor the brilliant submission by Dr. R. Armattoe at the UN 4th committee.
@UNECOSOC Review the decision that made British Togoland part of the independent state of Ghana in 1957: UNECOSOC need not to forget their obligations. Until we see a ratified Union agreement between the state of Ghana and Togoland, Togoland maintain her sovereign status.
@UNHumanRights@volker_turk When is the decision A-HRC-WGAD-2022-47-GHANA be implemented for the people still held by the government of Ghana to be set free to be reunited with their families?
Why is the council silence as Ghana continue to violate the rights of the HSGF members when the UN Human Rights WGAD rules that the case be brought to an end and the people be set free? Over 2yrs since the decision was made: case file A-HRC-WGAD-2022-47-GHANA @volker_turk
What question would you ask the UN Human Rights Chief, @Volker_Turk?

@UNPOintl Western Togolanders continue to be peaceful even when open threats are being committed on them like the burning of all Ewe settlements in the Bui Dam area by the BPA on the excuse that they are Ewes and are not Ghanaians and should leave to their country. Video available.
Despite global recommendations, the rights of #WesternTogoland advocates remain under threat.
Leaders like George Nyakpo have endured arbitrary detention, and activists continue to face persecution for advocating self-determination

The unchallenged information the media in Ghana don't want the world to hear. No matter the suppression, the Truth and the resilience of our people in having their rights as people will forever keep rising up.

@Madida_DmL @GhanaCrimes Thank you for this historical account. Dr. Nkrumah caused lots of pain in the lives of our people. Till date the land and its people are suffering. Until we end this British orchestrated amalgamation our part of the land will continue to be suffering.
@UNGeneva We in Western Togoland call on the UN to review the issues of our people. Our country cannot be absorbed by Gold Coast turned Ghana and everyone will be looking on . The 1956 plebiscite didn't say our country be integrated, we are to be in a political Union.
Every year ethnic cleansing in this contraption call Ghana. This two images are speaking for themselves, the first is 2024, the other is 2004. There are more cases in both videos and acts against us. @_AfricanUnion@AmnestyWARO@FCDOGovUK@UN@ecowas_cedeao
🇺🇳Today the Fourth Committee of the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution on the eradication of colonialism in all its forms and manifestations.
This initiative, proposed by our country and supported by the member states of the Group of Friends in Defense of the Charter of the UN, was discussed and endorsed by the UN Special Committee on Decolonization last summer.
☝️The resolution represents a significant contribution to the effort to hold former colonizers accountable for their colonial-era crimes. It includes important provisions emphasizing the need for compensation to affected countries, including reparations. The broad support for this draft underscores that demands for justice from the Global South will only continue to grow.

@elonmusk Ghana is a British slavery legacy. The joining of the UN Trust Territory of Togoland under British Administration was an affront to fundamental human rights. Even though the claim that the people voted "willingly" in a plebiscite the opposite was the case.
Is the people of Western Togoland not Humans to also de,and for their rights to Self Determination without being arrested? Why are others allowed multiple opportunities to register their feelings but Western Togoland was not given same chance?
