His commitment to regional integration was once again demonstrated through his meeting with Chadian Prime Minister Allamaye Halina, who delivered a message from President Mahamat Idriss Déby Itno. This meeting helped strengthen the relationship between Lomé and N’Djamena and addressed major issues, including Chad’s candidacy for the presidency of the African Development Bank (AfDB), a strategic position for the continent’s economic future.
The expected support from Togo for this candidacy is part of a dynamic of solidarity and intra-African cooperation. As a respected leader, His President Faure Gnassingbé plays a key role in consultations between states, fostering coordinated and mutually beneficial choices for the entire continent. His commitment demonstrates a strong determination to strengthen African institutions and promote economic governance based on the expertise and aspirations of the African nations themselves.
Through concrete actions and active diplomacy, the Togolese President affirms the need for Africa to take control of its own destiny. The close relationship between Togo and the AfDB is a testament to this, with significant investments in key sectors of national development. This approach perfectly illustrates the philosophy of the Head of State: a united, proactive Africa capable of mobilizing its own resources for sustainable and inclusive development.
