In the ever-shifting sands of Niger’s political landscape, ominous whispers of counter-coups are becoming increasingly hard to ignore. As tensions escalate, a deep-rooted struggle for power and influence reveals itself, with various factions positioning themselves amidst the growing instability.

A clandestine source, wishing to remain unidentified for security reasons, has shed light on some concerning developments within the nation. According to the source, there has been a significant reshuffling of members within the National Guard, hinting at possible preparations for unforeseen developments on the political horizon. The constant movement of personnel is raising alarms, adding a new layer of complexity and uncertainty to the already tense atmosphere in Niger.

At the heart of this turbulence is General Tchiani, who has reportedly ensconced himself within the Presidential Palace, refusing to leave its confines. This seclusion suggests a strategic consolidation of power, or possibly the anticipation of an imminent threat. Adding fuel to the speculative fire is Tchiani’s reported preparations for a military intervention by CEDEAO, a move that hints at the broader regional implications of the unfolding drama.

Meanwhile, two prominent factions are emerging, fiercely critical of Tchiani’s actions and seemingly aligning with foreign influences. First, the “Americans,” comprising Modi, Barmou, and Mama Sani Kiaou, are asserting their stance openly, aligning closely with the United States and utilizing its influence to challenge Tchiani’s reign. Their public denouncements of Tchiani are creating ripples in Niger’s political circles, presenting a formidable opposition to the General’s regime.

Conversely, another faction seems to be fostering ties with French authorities, Accroding to counter insurgency expert in Nigeria Zagazola as evidenced by a covert meeting facilitated by General Salaou Barmou in Zinder. This gathering, which included top French officers stationed at the base in Chad, poses troubling questions about the extent of foreign involvement in Niger’s internal affairs. Barmou’s motivations and the objectives of this clandestine meeting remain shrouded in mystery, adding a dangerous element of unpredictability to the unfolding narrative.

As Niger stands on the precipice of potential upheaval, the unfolding events cast a long shadow over the nation’s future. The looming question now is – what do these shifting allegiances and shadow movements signify for Niger? As factions jostle for power and foreign influences make their presence felt, the path ahead seems fraught with danger and uncertainty.

In these turbulent times, the citizens of Niger and the global community watch with bated breath, hoping for a peaceful resolution, even as the undercurrents of political turmoil threaten to engulf the nation in chaos. The intricate web of alliances, rivalries, and foreign interventions is weaving a complex tale of a nation grappling with its destiny, a narrative that the world hopes will eventually lead to stability and peace for Niger.

We told them but they won't listen

A soldier that left barrack's to commit Coup, and now live in Presidential Palace controlling billions would never relinquish power back to civilians

You don't want to sell your resources to France and Europe,

Yet Communist Russia and China are the people you want to trust with your resources

Lamba

These people are united because of the love they have for their country. They have removed the puppet called president, selling out his country men

They will not hand over to a similar person who will continue where the ousted president stopped these ones are determined not to labour in vain

The counter-coup would have been very easy in Nigeria because of their love for money above all things, humans inclusive

They are not Nigeria that kills their own citizens in broad daylight and bury them without repercussions all because of money and power

So make una rest! This militarized government are going nowhere!!!

TongueTwista:


Some of una sha!

Thread is talking about the possibility of factions with varying interests amidst the military order and your comment is facing backwards addressing something entirely unrelated to the subject matter.

Na wa!

iammo:


That is why Nairaland is a discussion forum for broad conversation... Try and use Reddit and Quora to understand how forum discussion boards works

Or do you see me question you when you put that very annoying song dedication on your thread and comment?!

I don't question you because it's a forum and you have the liberty

TongueTwista:


I don't do any of that song dedication nonsense. That's the recalcitrant behaviour of that supporter of APC nigga, TemplarLandry.

I use Quora and people hardly comment off tangent. Issues are addressed roundly. There's nothing in this thread that made reference to power transition from the military to a civilian administration. That you found it audacious to comment in that direction and even seek to justify it, leaves the mind swirling in wild circles.

iammo:


I think if you were any wise, after diplomatically asking you to mind your own business and make your own comment without castigating mine, if you push on with whatever silly idea or agenda of causing nuisance this morning, it my squarely back fire on you, because I won't hesitate to put you in your place

So I suggest you mind your business and never you tell anyone how to exercise their freedom of speech and expression

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
as threats of military intervention don fail...ecowas/ebola wan use propaganda & fake news to restore Bazoum. jokers! what happened to their 7days ultimatum?

iammo:


You know what... I am having a great morning and you obviously woke up very bitter terrible and incoherent

Please kindly stop qouting me, look for your fellow riff raffs to banter with


Thanks as you comply
