In line with objectives of the African Union Border Programme, the Ghana Boundary Commission and the Land Boundary Commission of Togo organised a joint sensitisation programme for selected border communities along the Ghana/Togo International Boundary Line including Leklebi-Kame (Ghana) and Kame Tonu (Togo). This forms part of a 2-day joint sensitisation to educate residents on the impending joint land boundary reaffirmation exercise to be undertaken by the two countries.
Dignitaries at the programme included: Mr Pouyo Samah, Deputy Minister for Local and Territorial Administration of Togo; Mr Atsoutsé Dotsevie of the National Land Boundary Commission of Togo; Col Henry Badasu, Director for Boundary Operations, representing the National Coordinator of the Ghana Boundary Commission; Togbe Atatsi V, Paramount Chief of Leklebi Kame; and Togbe Akotia, Paramount Chief of Kame Tonu.
Speakers at the programme reiterated the message that the land boundary reaffirmation exercise between the two countries was not aimed at drawing new boundaries but jointly reaffirming the existing ones.
