Racoon:
Most leaders of the West African sub-region are sit-tight dictator and the only thing they understand is the military coup language. AU is toothless and useless.

Well, the guy who was overthrown had only been in the job for two years.

Also coups haven't helped any African country

Au should stay out of this , this coup will help peace in Nigeria

E sure me say NIGER has a powerful weapon to shut the so called AU up if they do anyhow

Tinubu the jack bauer

Military reign is better than the current west African democracy

This film get 15-day suspense.

Nonsensical talk from AU

High time that french puppet was kicked out.

ManirBK:

This is sad! For African countries to only be under military leadership..this is sad

Shut up please, if the kind of dirty, corrupt and evil leadership we have here in Nigeria is what the civilians are able to bring then what's the difference if the military take over? They can't be worse than these senseless civilian leaders.

BoldBrainz:
Still amuses me when I wake up every morning and realise Tinubu is actually occupying the Aso rock seat and fancying himself as the voice of West African countries..

The joke is just surreal!

Don't worry...you will laugh for 8 good years.

He's not "fancying himself".... He's the President and there's nothing you can do but cry about it.

• Tinubu prepares to host ECOWAS emergency meeting

I think Africans deserve military junta. Democracy is for civilised society. There are more extrajudicial killings in democratic Nigeria compared to military regimes. The only difference is that elites suffer more under military regimes.

Impossible. I repeat impossible and when has such happened last in Africa soil?

Impossible!!!

Dvdpity:


The back bone of ecomog is Nigeria and Mali. Mali will never send their soldiers to die for France and USA.. Nigeria on the other hand will disintegrate once they send thousands of soldiers to Niger Republic to oust the new government.

how will Nigeria disintegrate? Or who will disintegrate Nigeria? You make me laugh 😅

ManirBK:
Good development The coup won’t hold. They know that. They would vacate the position either in peace or in pieces.

Ecowas chairman Tinubu is holding emergency meeting to set right the situation

He should set right the situation in his own country first.

Only if you're the military man doing the reigning - or a tribalist so embittered by his candidate losing that he would rather see everyone else deprived of their choice as well.

Lol.. I read the citizens are in support of it, trust me nothing the AU will do other than negotiate for a new Democratic government.

If all the president can do is only to make people cry then he is not worthy to be a president.

Niger republic is a sovereign state, AU can't detect to them how to run their govt. same way EU and other international bodies can't interfere in Nigeria's affairs like elections.

You guys are just ignorant. Nigeria will intervene in Niger, we can't afford a disabled Niger. The military greedy folks won't see what's coming. Enough of the madness

007kjb:

No it hasn't.

Military rule has been just as bad , and in some instances even worse than democratic rule here.

You don't have to agree with me, and I myself don't like our current political system, regardless of the party, but at least we have choices that we never had under army rule

Also, at the end, we have had the same corruption and looting under army rule that we do under civilian rule. The soldiers take over where the civilians stop.

If you want a better democratic system, we have to get up and do the hard work of participation. No democracy is born perfect. It is always a work in progress

And if we want prosperity we have to develop an industrial economy that exports. Army rule never did that, nor did civilian rule. A coup would just change the nature of the oppressors. It's at the end, still the same mess.

I hope you'll be part of the soldiers who will be sent to Niger.

AU has no standing armed forces.
Toothless bulldog is the AU.
West Africa could not manage democracy.
Since 2019, for example, one man, Mahmood Yakubu, had APPOINTED the presidents for Nigeria.

Easy man.

Not everyone is crying you know. Antagonism shouldn't be a yardstick to lose your God-given sense of reasoning.

its all about control between the west and russia and china. it about how want to help and control africa. mali kicked french troops out of their country and recrutied russia machinaries.

You don't know what is cooking, send 100k Nigerian soldiers to Niger, which they won't be able to over throw the government and watch how Nigeria will crumble.

OP, how your headline come slaughter the man name like that na? Anyway, all this one na toothless dog dey bark sha!!

You very ignorant, who will fight for that nonsense? Nigerian army that is struggling with bokoharam? Or you think that igbos or Yorubas will die in the land of niger, for who? You are mad.
