I'm going to be living in Lomé for a while and I'm really missing freediving and spearfishing. Anyone here looking for a buddy? I'm a novice and can't really spearfish below 15 meters.

Hello. For context, I am Gen-mina guy in US who has been good friends with a Kotokoli girl in Sokode for a few years now. We talk almost every day and our friendship began to blossom into romance after we spent time together during my last visit. I am seriously considering to marry her one day, but for a while was hesitant on moving forward with her because she is Muslim and I am Catholic. Despite our different faiths, we have similar temperaments, share many interests, and respect and love one another. One of my relatives told me that he has seen relationships between Gen and Kotokoli people work out just fine. I'm interested in hearing if anyone else has seen or is in such relationships with advice or experience to offer. Thx.

Hi! Would someone be able to provide the lyrics to this song and their translation? I know it’s a big ask so any info is appreciated, or if you know where I can find the lyrics. I love her music and would love to know what she’s saying! Paroles et translation en français au lieu d’anglais seraient bonnes aussi, si ça marche mieux!

Greetings everyone. I am dating a Togolese person . for context I’m from Ghana. we have been together for a year . he has done the korkor/knocking. he recenttly told me that we need to move in together and get pregnant first before he married me. He stated this request is specifically done by the gen-Mina people. I have never heard any such culture where you have to impregnate the woman before you marry her. I am turning 38years old for context . My question does the Mina culture specifically a woman have to be impregnated before they are married? please I need honest and serious reply. Thank you for reading

Hi everyone, I am looking for books from, or about Togo for our Read the World challenge over at r/bookclub. The book can be any length, and genre, but it must be set or partially set in Togo. Preferably the author should be from Togo, or at least currently residing in Togo or has been a resident of Togo in the past. I'm looking for the "if someone could only ever read one book from Togo which book should it be" type suggestions.

The book should be available in English

Thanks so much

This is something that I’ve realized about my family’s country, is that we really don’t have any unique or special features that make us an interesting African country. Literally every other African country has something that makes them special.

South Sudan is known for having the tallest and darkest people in the world.

Senegal like South Sudan is also known for its dark skin and tall people, not to mention its vibrant culture and traditional sports like Senegalese wrestling.

Kenya is known for its vibrant people, culture and savannahs. It’s one of the most known countries in East Africa.

Ghana is known for its gold and deep rich history, the Akan tribes are ancestors for a lot of Jamaicans and Ivorians.

Equatorial Guinea is the only Spanish speaking country in Africa.

Congo is the richest country in the world in natural resources, and it’s also known for having one of the best and most influential music in the world. It’s also where rumble in the jungle took place, and tons of people also know Patrice Lumumba and Mobutu Sese Seko. Lingala is also one of the most known African languages in the world.

Ethiopia is the only African country to never be colonized, it’s one of the most unique African countries in the world, and it’s also known for its religion, coffee, and beautiful looking people.

Nigeria is the most populated black country in the world, it’s also known for its diversity, Afrobeats, and food

Ivory Coast is known for its chocolate, and it’s one of the most developed countries in West Africa. There’s also the zaouli dance which originates from Ivory Coast.

Benin is known for its Voodoo, it’s the birthplace of Vodun religion and they also have the Dahomey Amazons. Tons of Haitians also have Beninese ancestry which makes sense given the voodoo and such.

I can keep going but you get the point. Literally every country in Africa aside from Togo has something very unique qualities and facts about them, that I can easily differentiate from each other. I tried to do the same with Togo but I really could not find anything interesting or special about it. I hope I’m not the only one who thinks this way?
