==2011 student riots==
In May 2011, the government of Togo ordered the indefinite closure of University of Lomé after students started riots demanding better conditions and food.〔 The riots began on Wednesday, May 25, 2011, and escalated through the rest of the week culminating in a clash on Friday between students and police which required the use of tear gas to disperse the roughly 500 rioting students. Authorities stated that the rioting students were invading lecture halls, assaulting lecturers and other students, and destroying university property. The university was closed on Friday, May 27, 2011. The head of the institution, Koffi Ahadzi Nonon, stated that the students were upset that the university had introduced a new academic system called LMD (translated as Bachelor, Master, Doctorate), for which the students were unprepared.〔 On May 26, 2011, the Embassy of the United States in Lomé, Togo, issued a Warden Message to U.S. citizens in Togo to avoid the university campus area until the riots had ceased and stating that tear gas may have been used on Wednesday, May 25, against the demonstrators. On June 6, an agreement between the university and the students was reached as students affirmed their commitment to the new LMD academic system and that the university would improve the students' living conditions. On June 15, the head of student organization, the Movement for the Development of Togolese Students or MEET, was arrested for attempting to incite possible violent resistance among students, while the head of Hacam - a different student organization - condemned the actions of the head of MEET. On July 8, students and government representatives signed a formal agreement allowing current students to continue on the classic academic system or switch to the LMD system at their option; and which stated that the government would invest 2.4 billion CFA francs (roughly 4,800,000 USD) into the construction of new lectures halls and versatile teaching blocks at the University of Lomé and the University of Kara.
