Togo’s prime minister is today urging the team to return home from the African Nations Cup following Friday’s attack on the team.

A number of players have been quoted in the French media saying they are keen to play on as a mark of respect to those killed and injured in the attack in the Angolan enclave of Cabinda, but prime minister Gilbert Fossoun Houngbo insists the team and support staff must come back to Togo today.
