MANGO

formerly Sansann-mango, town, northern Togo, western Africa, situated on the Oti River near the Kran National Park. The town served as the principal locale of Savanes until the late 1970s, when Dapango (formerly Dapaong) assumed that position. Mango still functions as a centre for cattle and peanut (groundnut) trade within this sparsely populated area. The town lies on the country's main road going north to the country of Burkina Faso (formerly Upper Volta) and south to Lom, the national capital. The Anoufo people inhabit Mango and the surrounding area. Pop. (1975 est.) 10,900.
