Togo's parliament has passed a resolution asking the government to make a formal bid for membership in the Commonwealth, a group of mainly former British colonies.
The country is already a member of the Economic Organisation of the West African States and the International Organisation of La Francophonie.
The speaker of parliament Yawa Tsegan says Togo is not leaving the Francophonie but will only strengthen the English teaching programmes and reactivate other partnerships.
The resolution, passed on Friday, asked the government to submit its application for Commonwealth membership at the bloc's next summit in Rwanda in June.
