DAE OF PIRST ARRIVAL IN GHANA: 30th May, 1960. 80 EXHIBIT W 16 ABOUT TOGOLAND REVOLUTION The struggle for a couple to change of regime in the Togoland should have two aspects: 1. 2. A political aspect entailing mobilisation and governmental problems, and A military aspects THE POLITICAL ASPECT NOBILISATION PROBLEM The mobilisation of the masses of the people seen an This mobilisation implies, under the present conditions (1) (11) Organisation and education of the masses of the (iii) A work which should di hten the African Governments This organisation and education of the Togolani people in Ghana as well as the preparation of the Inter African and International opinion should not be underestimated. In the preparation of the Revolution, we should not minimise the internal and external forces of the enemy. Our objective should be to isolate and weaken, the enemy. Indeed we think that the seizing of power in this country and in the condition in which we are, would require a surprise attack to overthrow the present Government, the re-establishment of public order in 24 hours, lamediate establishment of military government, the disolution of all the political structures, the reconstruction of the administrative machinery and nominetion of the withorities of the electoral district. The regime will last for a short time. It will only be the time for constitutional and institutional reforus submitted for a referendum for establishment of a final Government. If this coup d'Etat succeeds, the popular support will becono a determining factor in the reinforcement of the Revolutionary Government authority on internal issues, and inter-African and Intern tiɔnal policies. But we must have the foresight to prepare against a possible operational failure - smprise in case where one circumstance or another would not allow the evolutionary armed forces to have control of the situation in forcast condition. In that case, we must plan for a long tern action. Now, in a prolonged war especially, we think that the Revolution must necessarily benefit fron sealous and unanimous support of the muses, And this support will only be possible when the nauses shall have been suficiently and etholically wg nised and educated on the fundamentals of the work which the Revolution would entail. In one case or the other, the good organisation and the education of the masses in nobilising then, could not be set aside. ..../2 |
