Borders will be drawn between Ghana and Togo.

Brigadier General Emmanuel Kotia, the National Coordinator of the Ghana Boundary Commission, said Ghana and Togo would re-install their boundary pillars by the end of May 2022.

Brig. Gen. Kotia, speaking to the press after touring the Ghana-Togo border, said the Commission's first aim is to preserve all Ghanaian territories.

According to him, this is part of a strategy to avoid large land disputes in the future.

"The consensus here is that both countries will form a technical team to work on rebuilding these pillars together." We have given ourselves until the end of May as a deadline.

"We cannot build a pillar or a new boundary player without the Togolese's approval since Togo is on the other side of the boundary player and Ghana is on the other side."

Because the line boundary projects will identify the international boundary line, we will have the Ghana Immigration Service reinforcing any encroachment once we get these pillars lined up appropriately at the various sites," he explained.

Ghana and Togo have had a long-running disagreement about their borders.

Since 2017, Ghana and Togo have been in talks about establishing a shared marine border.

President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo of Ghana and President Faure Gnassingbe of Togo, who represent their respective countries, agreed on peaceful and concerted efforts to address the issue and foster bilateral relations.

In April 2021, the Ghana Boundary Commission launched an audit of Ghana's land border with Togo to avoid a significant land conflict between the two countries.

The exercise was prompted by concerns about several boundary conflicts received from various security agencies, traditional authorities, and local authorities.

The mandate's Technical Committee has so far agreed on a roadmap for the negotiations.
