Disappointment is expected last Sunday among the supporters of the Kpodzro Dynamic. Sunday, May 3, 2020, when in front of the small screens, the ceremony of the inauguration of Faure Gnassingbé was celebrated. A ritual that Gnassingbé Eyadéma's son was performing for the fourth time in widespread political confusion. Faure Gnassingbé took the oath freely, to the eyes and beard of the dynamic Kpodzro who remained behind laptops and tablets to lament. The miracle did not happen, yet they were sure. They have failed but continue to harbour false hopes of alternating between small lies and menacing curses. The mastermind of this misadventure Messan Agbéyomé Kodjo has therefore missed the last opportunity to make history.
Those who can read the actions of politicians can easily interpret the behaviours and attitudes of Gabriel Agbéyomé Kodjo in recent times.
Here is a man who engaged the arm-wrestle with the power of the Gnassingbé, claiming to have won the presidential election, proclaiming to be the real winner and promising in euphoria to bring back victory against winds and tides, ready to go to prison or even to die for Togo, multiplying to the left and right incantations to end with the dictatorship of the system RPT/UNIR, which finds itself reclusive after an attempt.
The politician, architect of the ruling party and its brutal methods, declined the offer of resistance after being led manu militari to the gendarmerie for refusing to respond to the summonses.
Presented before the prosecutor, Kodjo Agbéyomé and his family did not hesitate to accept silence against a compromised release. Prohibition of talking about his alleged victory, prohibition of leaving the country without authorization, placed under judicial control etc. These restrictions are heavy, very heavy, humiliating to the limit, compromising in the end.
For a wise leader who asserts himself and aspires to fight for a people thirsting for freedom and liberation, it was the royal way to force political power to commit the worst.
Putting him and his political offspring in jail and creating an international outcry that, you never know, could exacerbate the crisis and force the RPT UNIR system to let go.
Agbéyomé Kodjo refused to be brave, brave fighter like Che Guevarra, like Nelson Mandéla, like Laurent Gbagbo, like Abdoulaye Wade, as Patrice Talon etc. Everyone has braved prison, dictatorship, oppression, threats, intimidation to sacrifice themselves and rise to the pedestal of the history of their respective countries.
Agbéyom Kodjo, the leader of the dynamic Kpodzro chose the path of ease, he returned nightly, tail between his legs, without asking for news of the fifteen of his followers arrested at his home. He chose to return to his comfort and mimic the resistance without further action.
Togolese history has recognized that both Fabre and Tikpi Atchadam, when they were fiercely persecuted by the RPT UNIR system, much more fiercely than Kodjo Agbéyomé today, they insisted on the fate of their activists. The reactions of the two leaders, the communiqués, the discussions required the regime in place to release their activists.
Since he decided to go home overnight to regain his bourgeois rights and habits, the leader of the Dynamic Kpodzro has not lifted a finger yet to demand the release of the 16 people arrested at his home and thrown in prison for rebellion and defiance of the police.
What would happen if Agbéyome Kodjo systematically rejected the restrictions imposed on him by the Prosecutor of the Republic. Nothing but prison but Togo will not only be the laughing stock of the world at this time of pandemic crisis, but also the partners will oppose this arrest and the new opponent will make a hero, will go down in history for fighting at the cost of his freedom and his life the system in place for the liberation of Togo , for alternation.
But refusing to attend summonses for fear of arrest and accepting humiliating restrictions to go home without worrying about his followers thrown in jail is a mark of cowardice and weakness for a man who has given in an illusory agitation, without further action.
As far as the fight for alternation is concerned, the parenthesis of the Kpodzro Dynamic was not only a waste of time, but also an opium that put the struggling people to sleep in the face of promises, the divine one embodied by the Holy Spirit and that related to the false and unreal merits affixed to the leader of the dynamic Kpodzro, Agbéyomé Kodjo who has just made us realize that he has nothing but the deceptic and deceptical discourse.
We have written it through our publications, Kodjo Agbéyomé only knows the game to which he engages. The opportunistic game based on the image of the archbishop who has just been had by the man who has never changed in his versatility of opinion.
He has just, one last time, missed the opportunity to make history as he wished.
His relics remain in place: Gnassingbé Eyadema's patented collaborator, initiator of the vile methods and practices that have bereaved Togo and his sons, manipulator inveterate for personal interests, bloodstained journey in several low blows, the most famous of which is the massacre of the Fréau Garden, he has not been able to erase this part of the history of his life that sticks to him.
So he missed the final opportunity.
OH MARY DESIGNED WITHOUT PEACHES, PRAY FOR US WHO HAVE RECOURSE TO YOU!
