In Togo, opposition political parties are calling for the postponement of municipal elections slated for July 17, 2025. They argue that the current political climate and lack of consensus do not favour a free and fair electoral process.

The demand has sparked debate within the political landscape, with critics citing concerns over transparency, voter preparedness, and tensions following recent protests.

However, the Permanent Consultative Framework (CPC) has firmly rejected the request, insisting that the electoral timeline remains unchanged.

This standoff underscores the growing mistrust between opposition factions and electoral authorities as the election date approaches.
