[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

In the era of #ArtificialIntelligence, when human dignity is threatened by new forms of dehumanization, ours is the pressing duty to remain profoundly human. We must lovingly safeguard the grandeur of humanity bestowed upon us and revealed in its fullness in Christ, the splendor of which no machine can ever replace. #MagnificaHumanitas

Now imagine what more could have been possible in an environment that actually supported growth instead of constantly slowing people down.

The real tragedy is where an entire generation could have been by now.

But Here we are.

[Jerry Fadugba, Ph.D. @jerofad]

Imagine what 11 years of consistent growth could do to a person’s life.
Now imagine losing that time to stagnation, instability, and declining opportunities.

[Jerry Fadugba, Ph.D. @jerofad]

More people would have owned homes, built wealth, traveled, invested, and lived with greater stability and dignity.

Think about everything you’ve managed to achieve despite these last 11 years.

LE TOGO SUPPRIME LE VISA POUR TOUS LES AFRICAINS !

Le Togo franchit une étape historique dans le renforcement de l’intégration africaine. Désormais, tous les ressortissants des États africains détenteurs d’un passeport national valide peuvent entrer sur le territoire togolais sans visa, pour un séjour allant jusqu’à 30 jours.

À travers cette réforme majeure, le Président du Conseil réaffirme sa volonté de faire du Togo un espace d’ouverture, de mobilité, d’opportunités et de coopération au cœur du continent africain.

Les voyageurs doivent toutefois effectuer leur déclaration de voyage sur la plateforme officielle https://t.co/CsFa9PI7k2 au moins 24 heures avant leur arrivée afin d’obtenir leur bordereau de voyage.
Le Togo confirme ainsi son leadership en matière d’intégration régionale et de rapprochement des peuples africains.
