Western Togoland, an unrecognized state within Ghana, has been at the center of an ongoing separatist revolt.

In September 2020, separatists in Western Togoland declared independence from Ghana, leading to an insurgency led by the Western Togoland Restoration Front (WTRF).

The group’s objective is the independence of the former British Togoland. This issue has garnered international attention, as Western Togoland is recognized by the international community as part of Ghana, creating a complex and contentious situation in the region.
