Jakumo:You have it exactly right! One would think Nigerians, of all people, would know better than to think any group of self-appointed leaders in uniform could possibly be less corrupt or unaccountable than the civilians they replace. The insistence on a 2-year "transitional" program comes directly from the Babangida and al-Sisi playbook, and like our Maradona, I'm sure that towards the end of that period this junta will find a new set of excuses to move the goalposts further into the future, later repeating the trick yet again with some new ruse, ad infinitum; meanwhile they will feast on the public purse so brazenly the masses will turn nostalgic for the "good old days" of Bashir, forgetting all the reasons why they wanted him gone in the first place. Anyone trusting in the good intentions of military men who interfere in politics is a f.ool. If the Sudanese masses have any sense, they will intensify their protests and civil disobedience until these coup-plotters announce concrete, immediate steps to hand over to a civilian caretaker government. 3 Likes 1 Share |

BrokenCock: The Queen of England is a ceremonial leader. Real power is in the hands of the Prime Minister and the Commons. In fact if any member of the Royal family tries to make political comments, they promptly get criticized. The day when royals could rule like autocrats ended in 1649, when Charles I was removed permanently 3 Likes |

Power is a dangerous tool in the hands of bigots and nepotistic fellas . So I hope our leaders learn a lesson from the rise and fall of Omar Albashir. |

Topmaike007: Your President lost election and have refused to accept defeat. He has been violating the Constitution and disobeying Court orders. He deserves to be removed. He is an illegitimate President. He and his Fulani cabals and their supporters believe he is above the law. But some patriotic guys in the Military could take action to restore democracy. |

This won't end well. The prime problem is the cut in the quantity of crude oil going to Sudan after the secession by South Sudan. This has been worsened by the low crude oil prices. This has cut government revenues by more than 50% and this knocked the sails out of Sudan's economy. Inflation has been high due to the plunge in the real value of the Sudanese currency. The government has also introduced some very unpopular austerity measures. If the Sudanese people expect a revolution and a new government that will usher in prosperity and surplus, they are mistaken. They will be disappointed. The money just isn't there! To get the economy back on track will take painful economic medicine that will be hard to swallow, the sort the IMF will recommend and approve. It's delusional to think that such a drastic drop in money entering the coffers of the state won't come with painful consequences. 3 Likes |

Sholaco:Actually the military had been protecting him, and at a point the demonstrations were channelled at the Army. Thousands of people had thronged the military headquarters for some time now. I am actually surprised, they decided to take him down. I guess it could well be that he resigned. |

Jakumo: Thanks for this write up. I actually wrote about the coup expressing pessimism from my own perspective. Your perspective is also correct. The best outcome from the coup plotters is the sort that happened in Nigeria in 1998 when Abdulsalaam and his boys disposed of Abacha and assumed power. Though they successful brought about a transition to democracy within a year, they looted the country blind. They were probably the most corrupt government ever, even touching the foreign reserves and depleting it. The police headquarters in Abuja was built within a year for 14billion. I can tell you with certainty that that building could have been built then for no more than 1billion. I'm eating popcorn and watching how this movie ends. Care for some? 3 Likes 1 Share |

Someone thinks Nigerians should take note of the Sudan story and demonstrate till Buhari is removed. Unfortunately, none of all that happened in the Arab spring and happened in Sudan can happen in Nigeria. 1. Nigerians are too divided across religious and ethnic lines. In Sudan people were taking shifts in the demonstration, and people would bring food and water for the demonstrators. 2. The average Nigerian is corrupt, that exactly is why there is no killing of corruption in Nigeria. We know the stories that surrounded the "Our Mumu Don Do" movement. 3. Nigerians are grossly selfish. No one is his brother's keeper. Those who are minimally comfortable will not risk demonstrating when they can at least manage, no questions asked about that neighbor who is a messenger in civil service and barely goes home with 20,000, but has a family. 2 Likes |
