		Kodjo said Eyadema's demise offered "an occasion to pose the problems of Togo in their entirety, rather than pressing a specific issue of the moment." This, he argued, would have enabled the international community to appraise the problems that have dogged Togo for decades now, from a global perspective.
		Kodjo cited the case of Gilchrist Olympio who was barred from the country's presidential election by a bad constitution that issued from a monolithic Parliament.
		Kodjo welcomed moves by the opposition to field a single candidate in the upcoming presidential election, but denounced the decision to exclude him from the initiative, saying it was "unjust".
