 By Antoine Bordallo Active in Benin since 1993, Aide et Action provides support for the refugee camps of Kpomassé, Comé, and Agamé near the frontier with Togo. We have maintained our support ever since the massive influx of Togolese nationals, escaping the wave of persecutions during the presidential elections in April last year. |  |
In the refugee camps of Kpomassé, three narratives unveil to us bits of details on the ordeals, the expectations and the fears of the refugees. Espérance, Alphonse and Ange, are from Congo and Congo-Brazzaville, but could very well have come from Togo, Rwanda or Niger. At Kpomassé, numerous nationalities are represented and attest to the array of problems facing the continent, political fractures and populations evicted by the discovery of oil or fleeing from natural disasters. |
