Togo’s flag to be hoisted in the Commonwealth

After being admitted to the Commonwealth Nations, Togo will make its official entry into the organization this Thursday, October 20, 2022.


It will be during a flag-raising ceremony organized at Marlborough House, the institution’s headquarters in London, in accordance with the practice.

On the sidelines of the “very important symbolism” of this event, Togo will hold a session, during which its main economic, cultural and social characteristics will be presented.

“The accession of our country is not only a diplomatic opportunity, which allows us to decompartmentalize our relations, but also an economic one since a new market of nearly two billion consumers is open to us”, recalled the Government Spokesperson, Akodah Ayewouadan.

Note that the flag of Gabon, a country admitted on the same day as Togo to the intergovernmental organization composed mostly of former British territories, was hoisted last Monday.
