  The jihadist threat in northern Ghana and Togo: stocktaking and prospects for containing the expansion

  The new study provides important insights into the situation of Ghana and Togo on the security chessboard in the region between the Sahel and the Gulf of Guinea. Both countries have increasingly become the focus of jihadist groups in recent years, especially due to the deteriorating security situation in Burkina Faso and Mali. The study looks at the varying degrees of jihadist terrorist threat in the West African countries on the Gulf of Guinea and sheds light on intergovernmental approaches in order to arm themselves against the growing danger of jihadist terror. This publication is the result of several field studies conducted by Promediation's local teams and consultants as part of their programmes in the Sahel and the Gulf of Guinea.

  Togo

  (L’islam au). L’islamisation au Togo s’est faite au début du XVIIIe siècle par des marchands itinérants et par l’installation de groupes de populations islamisées. Faible, la progression de l’Islam est cependant constante, et touche façon inégale les régions et les groupes ethniques. Le 27 septembre 1963, l’Islam togolais qu’aucune structure n’organisait auparavant, se dote d’une Union musulmane du Togo (UMT) qui lui insuffle une nouvelle dynamique en l’inscrivant dans le champ monopartidaire du Rassemblement du peuple togolais.

  Togo

  Togo, Islam in the West African Republic of Togo. The Islamisation of what is now the Republic of Togo dates from the beginning of the 18th century, through the activities of traders and the settlement of Islamised population groups. Islam has been weak there, but has constantly progressed, whilst affecting different regions and groups in a variable manner. On 27 September 1963, what had been previously completely unstructured saw the formation of the Muslim Union of Togo (UMT), breathing into its structure a new dynamic as part of the one-party state of the Rassemblement du peuple togolais.
