Answer

Gnassingbé was re-elected for a second term in 2010, consolidating his hold on power after the death of his father, Gnassingbé Eyadéma, who had ruled Togo for nearly four decades. The election, which was widely criticized by the opposition and international observers, was marked by reports of irregularities and voter intimidation. Gnassingbé's re-election sparked widespread protests and clashes with security forces, resulting in numerous casualties.
