You are not even ashamed of yourselfu are only good in backstabbing others African countries.

Tell me how u pseudo giant of Africa which is supposed to pave the Way for Africa unity is making plot against a brother? Moronic bastards who put in place a France prefect called ouattara

You can whoop France @ss then why chicken out now? Oh that's right. You ain't got the balls without daddy UK,USA and co helping you

solomon111: This is why we need nuclear deterents with ICBM capabilities against countries like france.
Anyway,i don't believe this story.
Any attack on Nigeria from france would lead to quick reprisals against cameroon,and france could also lose their economic influence in west africa.
So unless france is stupidd enough to endanger their economy for cameroon, then this story is BS.

alanmwene: West Africans arent courageous people Had Mugabe been the president of Nigeria,I couldn't see him bowing down to france.Come to think of it,vietnameses took on frenchs and americans and defeat them comprehensively!

TribalEAST: France dat is busy licking the bottom of the QUEEN OF ENGLAND

gare: It was wrong of Nigeria to have released Bakasi to Cameroon,France would not have done anything,how many wars has France won in thier history,the French people are cowards.

Its very unfortunate that our leaders he could have stood their grounds gave in to the judgment, it is gone now and what are we doing to ensure that we have a strong military to protect this country.

kettykin: I once asked the question of whether the same people who once boasted of how the would spill the last drop of their hypocritical blood to defend the unity of nigeria were so reluctant to spare a drop of sweat to defend the only oil rich island Nigeria has apart from bonny.
Knowing fully well how Nigeria does not keep to agreement particularly international agreements decided to abide 100% by the ICJ ruling which most other African countries like Sudan, Kenya, Zimbabwe call bluff.

The generals who often boasted of their exploits during the uncivil war fought to keep Nigeria one but kept mute like dumb asses when bakassi was mentioned.
Hypocrites like Gowon, danjuma, Obasanjo, domkat bali, Useni, babangida and the most recent clown Alabi Isama and his storytelling partners (Adekunle and Akirinade)
Should please stop their tales by moonlight and a complete waste of newspaper pages which could have generated money for the newspaper houses through adverts and
Kept their funny ponytail lies to their gullible wives and girl friends.
Nigerians are tired of the fake and blatantly falsified war bravery stories of these Overnight generals.
Any fake or falsified war stories by any overnight war generals would lead to a court case

oily Yoruba: Bakassi France would have levelled Nigeria- Duke

01 OCT, 2013

Former Cross River Governor, Donald Duke, yesterday disclosed that France threatened to level Nigeria if the country had gone to war with Cameroun over the Bakassi Peninsula.

Speaking at the 60th birthday lecture in honour of Justice Charles Archibong (rtd) held in Lagos, Duke said any attempt to ignore the International Court of Justice, ICJ, judgement would have been disastrous for Nigeria. He said: "France would have wiped us out. Cameroun is still a protectorate of France and has a defence pact with France. And France is duty bound to honour that pact, even though it has a lot of investments in Nigeria.

"The French President made it clear to us that it has put on alert its military and showed us the entire position of our military and exactly where we were and our daily movements.



"If we engaged Cameroun in war, France would have wiped us out. We tried to liaise with the Chinese and the Russians, but America made it point blank that where the British stands that is where they stand. We were ready to table it before the Security Council, but they were not ready to take it.''

The former governor said after the ICJ judgement, Obasanjo tried to remedy the situation by seeking protection from Britain and United States, but they were not ready to assist. Duke also said Camerounian President, Paul Biya, snubbed former President Olusegun Obasanjo when the latter visited him over the Bakassi issue.

The former governor said Obasanjo and his entourage were kept waiting for about three hours before they were grudgingly attended to by the Camerounian president. He said a lot of meetings were held behind the scene to resolve the issue, but the Camerounian leader refused to cooperate. Duke said it was later discovered that the reason Obasanjo was snubbed was due to an earlier confrontation between Biya and former Military Head of State, the late General Sani Abacha over the issue.

He said: "No one questions the ancestral ownership of Bakassi. Behind the scene there were lots of works, lots of meetings that went on. The problem of Bakassi did not start with the civilian administration; the case actually went to court in 1996, even before we were sworn in into office in 1999. "There was this famous world tour by President Olusegun Obasanjo.

One of the places we visited was Cameroun, we arrived at the airport, we met President Paul Biya who was seeing-off another leader, but he snubbed us. "He left us at the airport for over three hours. We were there and the embassy staff did not know what to do. Grudgingly, he met with us, and lectured us on Bakassi.

Later on, we found out that he was reacting to an earlier confrontation he had with late General Sani Abacha. "We thought we could settle the matter out of court, because we knew we should never have gone to court in the first place, we don't stand a chance. But, we thought we could settle it out of court, but Cameroon was adamant. "We took the matter to the African Union, AU, the union tried to facilitate peaceful resolution of the matter, but it couldn't work."
Why didn't France level us when Late Gen.Sani Abacha was in power? What we have is chicken livered politicians and leaders.Let Cameroon and France thank their stars that Abacha is no more.

odua soulja: Why are you this retarded,name one african country that can face france in any war and win.And must your useless biafra be mentioned on every thread.

kardoso: It's a shame. A big shame indeed. This is a country that couldn't resist the germans during world war 2. The germans moved through the heart of france to their home land paris without the french firing a single shot at the invading germans. It's a big shame nigeria.

VoteOutPDPJona:

Your conversation with @Camerounpride kept me entertained all along, especially your laughable ignorance on international politics. Unknown to you, the USA, france, Uk, and Dutch military personel are currently conducting a joint military exercise with the Nigerian Navy on Nigerian high seas under the guise of ..........

I won't tell you. But the Africom you fear is already in Nigeria with a fine new name Can you guess it?

Please wise Solomon, I'm itching to begin my political and historical class under you to enable me shrug of my current neophytism.

Anyway, I seem to enjoy you patrotism and zeal for Naija

My Mouth: would they hv made that treat if it were Abacha? guys go and read ur history, france is a world power bt hw many wars have they won in History? They are onu good in starting wars and pullin out wen it gets hot. e.g vitnem

50calibre:


Don't mind the lazy cheese eating French, that can't fight any war.

See hitler in Paris, along with his lieutenants. This pic would forever be an embarrassment to the French.

Elliotwiz1: sometimes It's better to be a coward.we had no allies, our presumed allies turned their back on us, what did you expect? Noone fights a war without allies...even America. Syria had allies but still submitted to the the international laws against her...she had strong allies ...and we didn't have any, the french wont even need a ground force to fight against us, their strength is their airstrike, what then would we do? Watch our troops roasted to death? Maybe if what you wished for had happened, you wont be here right now, you would be in a cave in your village hiding.

solomon111: This is why we need nuclear deterents with ICBM capabilities against countries like france.

So unless france is stupidd enough to endanger their economy for cameroon, then this story is BS.

Licensed-2-Kill:
I see no sense in this post. Some dumbass jst dont understand how international politics works. The worst france could have done was to back cameroon up with weapons and tactical advice like they did in libya. They wouldnt dare raised a single finger against Nigeria and well, that's not because they can not.

gare: It was wrong of Nigeria to have released Bakasi to Cameroon,France would not have done anything,how many wars has France won in thier history,the French people are cowards.

Its very unfortunate that our leaders he could have stood their grounds gave in to the judgment, it is gone now and what are we doing to ensure that we have a strong military to protect this country.

Mafia Man: Where were France when Abacha made our military to push the Cameroonian gorillas to Yaoundé within 2 weeks?
