Thanks. I do hope justice was indeed served cos that was gruesome for the victims. Also shows that work will always go on whether you kill yourself or not.

Quite right, you are.

It seems there's some kind of confusion. Okay, let's fix that.

The Chinese Government is run by a civilian and not the military as in coups.

The president of China is elected by the National People's Congress (NPC), constitutionally China's highest state body, which also has the power to remove the president and other state officers from office. Elections and removals are decided by majority vote .

China is not a liberal democracy. The Chinese government and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) state that China is democratic nonetheless . Many foreign (including you) and some domestic observers categorize China as an authoritarian one-party state , with some (including your lecturers/teachers) saying it has shifted to neoauthoritarianism .

Semantics, bro.

In the general sense of societal agreeability of the basics and tenets that constitute a modern democracy, China does not meet the criteria, and is therefore, not considered a democracy.

Hypocrite is when you attack Tinubu for planning war in Niger but when it comes to economic sanctions it becomes ECOWAS decision.

Quote me where I attacked Tinubu for the war or remain silent

Pipefitter:


The sanctions were imposed by ECOWAS not Nigeria. President Tinubu happens to be president of ECOWAS...

When it's war, you insult timubu and you claim it's Nigeria that wants to go to war, even stating things like "What is the difference between ECOWAS and Nigeria? Nigeria is Ecowas"

but now that it's sanction, na Ecowas no be Nija again?

Yes, by a foreigner like you.

Here in our democracy, we believe by constitution that our NASS represents all of us.

Their president is elected by the National People's Congress (NPC) , constitutionally China's highest state body, which also has the power to remove the president and other state officers from office. Elections and removals are decided by majority vote.

NPC is believed by Chinese Constitution to represent all sections of China as all these people are represented in their NPC.

So how they choose to run their own democracy of which if looked at critically is correct, is up to them and not you being a foreigner. Got it?

Good!

Abeg until some Peace and Sanity returns to Niger, there is no point investing any money there ooo.
Who would blow it up...terrorists? Niger is one of the safest countries to live in Africa.

Or is it war that will blow it up? Niger is a sovereign state, just like Nigeria. If the ecowas wahala is much, they may leave the union amd stay alone. People should stop treating this country like its a Nigerian territory

Once those guys support anything, that thing is doomed!

Trump was said he regretted that he got support from South-East Nigeria. Even GEJ made mention of it after election defeat.

Atiku wrote in his biography that, the root cause of his political woes was getting support from the South-East.

And the Economic and hardship woes of Nigeria is that they get support from SW.

Got it!

Howbeit, China is still not categorised as a model for 21st century democracy. However you choose to coin the narrative, the reality is undeniable and unmistakable.

This is not however, meant to wholely demonise or discredit whatever they consider to be their version of democracy, that is currently in practice. Nay! This is only meant to clear the air as regards the lucid serenity of appropriate information.

We are actually considered as a "big brother" by a sizeable measure of the Cameroonian citizenry. That part, is not hearsay.

This is probably the first time Nigeria as a country will wake up and realize the superior power she weilds as one of the 3 top economies in Africa. You're not just a lion,only to run far away from an antelope, you have to exert your force, influence and superiority in order to be respected. As bitting as the subsidy removal has been on the economy and Nigerians at large, we all have seen how many neighbouring countries have also been crying more than the bereaved. Goes to show that the Nigerian economy is one of the most strategic economies in Africa. Na now we just dey wake up.

Who said China is not democratic? China is democratic. Na foreigners want am to dey like their own. In China, their president is elected by majority vote by the NPC who by constitution represents all sections of China just as by constitution NASS represents all sections of Nigeria. This is why China's election is not experiencing violence. The US and other nations that practice your own version of democracy almost always have some kind of crisis during elections. The previous one that removed Trump and installed Biden is a testament.

you never believed in your county's ability to decide what happened in ECOWAS region and even the African continent. So is impossible for you to prosper in the land.
Even the Bilbe tells us to prayer for the peace of Jerusalem(Nigeria) that it may prosper.
