Togo’s PM Resigns : Can This Miracle Happen In Nigeria? by gulfer: 8:41am On Jul 13, 2012 |
Togo’s president has accepted the resignation of Prime Minister Gilbert Houngbo, the presidency announced on state television late Wednesday. http://pmnewsnigeria.com/2012/07/12/togos-pm-resigns/ |

OP, there is little reason to post out of context. I am sure 99.99% of Nigerians would prefer not to be ruled by a single man for decades, only for him to die and his son take over as is the case with Togo. What should have concerned you is the very strange case of the Prime Minister resigning over demonstrations and the President on whose desk the buck stops accepting. Please, google both Eyadema and Gnasingbe for the full blast of what I have summarised in a few simplistic sentences to hit you square between the eyes. Pray that we never have such nonsense in Nigeria, Abacha is the closest we came to such despotic rule. |

gulfer: Beaf, answer the question, can a politician resign-either under duress or not? The speaker in one of the Northern states "resigned" earlier this week. Anyone can "resign" under duress. Your example is poor. That Togolese politician did not resign, but was sacrificed by Togo's maximum leader. I'm sure you can find better examples to use within Africa, instead of the very poor one from Togo. 3 Likes |

BTW what should be the basis of comparison if you know any; the question is simple, 'can this happen here?' @ Beaf, the purported resignation of the Northern state lawmaker is from post as a deputy speaker and not from his position in the house. |

gulfer: Save me that high horse statement, the fabled 'Giant of Africa' tale is now hogwash. The question is Why the fhuck should it happen here?! And beafs explanation is Okay!! The PM resigned his position as Prime minister.. The Deputy speaker resigned his position as Deputy Speaker.. Whats your problem?! Are you aware of any impediment or reason why he should also resign as an Assembly man?! Again, stop with the comparison.. Nigeria is a Sovereign Country.. In Japan, there is a tradition called Seppuku where a person commits suicide as a form of Capital Punishment or to do pennace for a shameful act... and even for honour.. Why dont you also ask if it can happen in Nigeria!! Inferiority complex come in different forms, check yourselves!! Nigeria may not be great, but that dont give you the right to talk shit about her at every given chance.. |

I support Beaf on this, the buck stops at the president's desk and that post (PM) is ceremonial, let the C in C step-down first, comeback to post it and then start comparing them with Nigeria. |

Nigeria is Nigeria and Togo is Togo, Both countries has different people and different way of life. I cant start wishing to be a togonian because their prime minister resigned. |

I don't know under what guise you are questioning if this is possible in Nigeria But from what i know of Togo, this resignation is not pro-democracy. Most likely, Houngbe has been hounded out office for apparently blocking Monsieur Gnassingbe. So if this can happen in Nigeria? yes, Obasanjo hounded some ministers to resign during his tenure; (Okonjo Iweala). So i don't know where this is coming from. 1 Like |

It's not a debate if it has happened severally... Do well to check your facts.. Countless public office holders have resigned their positions at different times in our political history... So it's not a debatable question.. Lol @ Methuselah .. Feels good to be old... |
