Nigeria has the world highest unemployment rate on earth

Nigeria is the world poverty capital on earth

Tinubu left what he’s supposed to be working on and wants to spend billions of dollars to fight his fellow illegitimate criminal

You thief mandate another man thief him own mandate you say he should return his own while you’re holding your own tight

How can a thief betray his fellow thief

80% of Niger citizens are happy about the coup

So what exactly is Ebolas problem

If I talk now una go say I hate Nigeria and Tinubu

Bcuz if I type wetin dey my finger now everywhere go burst

We’ve hunger, security, livelihood issues in Nigeria and all Tinubu cares for is Niger

I think the president was too hasty, this has really presented him in bad light in the African continent and especially the sub region.

He urgently needs his advisers and cabinet in place and under no circumstances should any foreign ambassador/ lobby/investor be left to have a one on one with the president without his kitchen cabinet.

We all no the president is no spring chicken any more less they sweet talk him into irrational decisions for their interest and and at the detriment of the president himself or the nation

As at now , the issue between ECOWAS and Niger is a Mexican standoff situation. I think President Tinubu was a bit too hasty and naive in leading ECOWAS to give deadlines in order to impress the West and particularly his personal friend and 'landlord' in France. Now, he has to manage the embarrassment of not carrying out the threat.

ECOWAS should buy time and save face by stylishly tell AU to come in beg them to stay action until AU talks to the Junta in Niger. grin

Personally, I believe the ship has sailed and ECOWAS' workable option now is to pressure the junta to draw up timetable to return Niger to democracy within shortest possible time.

He is still on the matter?
This is becoming unacceptable
How many meetings has Tinubu called on subsidy removal and the plummeting naira?
How many has he called on insecurity?

The best he can do is to let go of the sycophants he has surrounded himself with for the past 24 years in Lagos and get sound minds around him.

If it were Lagos, his foot soldiers and sycophants would have bullied everyone into submission.
But this is Nigeria, where some interests and allegiances run deeper than money.

You can't get everyone to bow to your whims like a mafia boss in a multi- ethnic and religious country like Nigeria.

Nigeria has more serious issues than a coup in Niger or looking good in a ceremonial ecowas role which is largely a toothless ekuke.

Baba should face the task of renewing Nigerians' hope as he promised and LEAVE NIGER ALONE!!

Tinubu one of the most unpopular presidents ever does not have the support of Nigerians to go Niger, he should know if he goes he is on his own , the Coup plotters of Niger are more popular in Niger than Tinubu is in Nigeria

"Tinubu sought the backing of the Nigerian parliament to fight war in Niger. It is alleged that some of the actions on which Tinubu sought senate approval had already been effectuated.....It is however gladsome that the senate refused this request to invade Niger by the Nigerian president."

Why do Nigerians suddenly care about spreading freedom and democracy? Is it because they're afraid of their military, I'd it because France don't like this Coupist or is it because they're in ecowas? It's weird how we are able to ignore the dictatorship to our east but this one is so troubling. It's also interesting the French don't care freedom in Cameroon. Niger Republic should just have fake elections so all the democracy-philes can relax.

E no easy to lose election ooo.

Your greatest pain is that your losing candidate cannot even convene a mere session of the Labour Party national leadership, not to talk of chairing and convening an international session.

Your rehabilitation would require intensive sessions with a psychiatrist.

Tinubu is a disgrace to Nigeria. A man that is overpowered by the only one person (Bello Turji) wants to fight the whole Niger grin. Between Tinubu and Zelesky I don't know the most foolish amongst them. He should understand that majority of Nigerians are hungry and angry, in fact majority of Nigerians envy Niger.

This man should rest abeg.
Before anyone goes to war, he or she must first check the economic importance of the war in favor of his or her country.

Which kind busy body president is this?

Re: Niger: Tinubu Convenes Extraordinary ECOWAS Summit by Flame333: 5:32pm On Aug 07, 2023
He should apologize to Niger Republic for disrespecting their sovereignty and move into dialogue proper so he can regain his lost respect..

You don't throw in your last card first in international politics..


When they asked him to come for debate, he ran and delegated question because he is not well equipped to lead..
Same way Buhari dodged and destroy the economy.. Nigeria is a big project...

It is very clear he wasn't the only one that got panicked by the coup at our backyard but the men surrounding him who see his emergence as an opportunity to rule without disturbance..

At this point, I don't even think Niger would listened to him because he would be tagged a snake that cannot be trusted..
