Soldiers have taken control of much of the capital of the Guinea-Bissau in what appears to be a coup attempt.

Heavy gunfire was heard in the city of Bissau and at the residence of outgoing Prime Minister Carlos Gomes Junior.

Troops also took control of the national radio station and ruling party's headquarters.

Mr Gomes came first in an inconclusive presidential election last month, but failed to win outright. His whereabouts are not known.

West African regional organisation Ecowas condemned what it described as an attempted coup.
Run-off boycott

"I personally saw some military vehicles close to the residence of the prime minister, and 20 minutes later, we heard an explosion, probably an RPG [rocket propelled grenade], and then shooting sounds. We heard this not on a regular basis, but we heard this shooting for one hour," a Bissau resident, who wished to remain anonymous, told the BBC about events on Thursday night.

The whereabouts of the interim president, Raimundo Pereira, is also unknown, reports say.

The African politicians are not delivering the dividend of democracy so the people are tired. Egypt, Libya, Mali, Guinea Bissau, who next?

war or wat

To the bold Nigeria

Those Thinking of a coup in Nigeria are just day dreaming, Just carry out a coup in Nigeria today by tomorrow the USA drones will be flying over Nigeria. and come to think of it can a coup take place where even the military are corrupt.

Nigeria come 2015 is next and the outcome of the 2015 presidential election will determine if we move forward or backwards as the country normally does (back to the 60's)..

I wish and pray nigeria,would be the next,

Be careful what you wish for. Be even more careful what you wish others, cos it might just go against you.

So long as our naive govt does not go around snooping in other peoples affair, the whole of ecowas can as well be at the mercy of pirates, who gives a damn. These so called neighbors are f...ing ingrates, two time backstabbers. I hope MR JONA is reading this!!! Stick to your domestic affairs!!!

bashy_demy: To the bold Nigeria

To the bold,

Fools calling for a coup in Nigeria, lets see who cries wen it happens.

Our so calld civilians has been liabilities to us as a people . I see no reason why we can not ve the basic necessities when we are so rich but out of reach and impoversihed. Nigeria is sitting on keg of gunpowder. It's either we implode or explode wateever.well all d coup happenins is a precedent. Let's wait n see

Ingrates indeed..but they aint to be blamed, international politics only seeks to push an individual country's interests first before any other.

Back to d topic, when u r not mentally developed enough to handle situations, u tend to physical aggression. "political liberation goes hand in hand with mental emancipation", until Africa is mentally emancipated she's yet to break the chains of bad leadership.

just wait and see. You may even be the one that will lead the plot. It will be a civilian coup.

a coup that will lead to disintegration may be underway. Haven't you heard that jonathan will be consumed in three month.

A coup in Nigeria will fail!
And fail woefully.

We have passed that stage a long time ago.
Well done guinea-bissau , you are 50 years behind us

Are u insane?..my frnd, pray 4 9ja, work for 9ja's progress too...God bless Nigeria

When the rich are getting richer and the poor getting poorer nko? Travel round Nigeria and see poverty. Our able boys are wasting away as thugs and agberos. Our girls cos of poverty have choosing toe the path of prostitution. If u see what are the senators do in abuja, u will truly realise that there is simply no democracy in Nigeria. Look round and see peoples' faces are u happy with what u see. We need a complete overhauling of the nigeria system. Kill all the politicians including my father. Why can't we all enjoy this life equally before we leave this world. After all, we will all die one day. Why looting and looting and looting for only ur children who even their 10th generation can't finish? Abegi, let d military boys take over jare. Ihejirika is a very cold General

belovedaja:

Bro u don weed?. me carry out a coup?. Oya tell me what is Jonathan's Sin, Cause he is from the south abi. You guys didn't call for a coup during OBJ regime. Do you think is easy to lead? try and lead an ordinary group and you will understand what leadership is all about.

Before you talk of Fuel Subsidy as Jonathan's Sin, go and read Mrs Ngozi Iwealas latest speech that governors refused to collect their state allocation until subsidy is removed. They pushed him to the wall, it was 1 man against 36men + the NASS members they just allowed him to carry all the blames while the lied to us, Now if it was you what would you have done?

Before you talk of Boko Haram, let me ask you, who formed them? who bought those rifles and bombs form them or do you think guns and bombs cost the price of Beans?. who is protecting them or do you think northerners even those in the military don't know this BH boys, they knows all of them but why wont they arrest them? Is GEJ going to carry GUn and start pushing BH himself?

Who is always releasing them when caught, who is lobbying the American government from putting Boko Haram as a terrorist organization or you think is cheap to lobby the American government, Do you think Jonathan makes every decision in Nigeria just because he is the president, Guys the soon you guys starts understanding Nigerian politics the earlier we start preparing for a change. Don't blame GEJ cause e no eazy.

Bro don't pray for what you cant stand when it happens, the moment a coup happens in Nigeria as Nigeria is now, then break up is imminent.

Some one tell me what is Jonathan's Sin? am eager to hear it.

I don't really know what's happening ( or I imagine) in your sub region West Africa but I pray for our Continent because I truly believe that France and UE are destablizing countries in West Africa for ressources because Europe is now facing fierce economical issues
