jul 21, 1959 - Second Split Juvento/CUT

Description:

Juvento broke away from the CUT in July 1959 over Olympio's conservative policies. Prior to the April 1961 elections, the party made a tactical alliance with the northern-based opposition, the Union Démocratique des Peuples Togolais, forming the Mouvement Nationaliste Togolaise-Juvento. [Under leadership of Ben Apaloo]
