Don't those people have families? How come no one complained about the death of a family member in the lekki toll gate? Did they kill the people and also trace their household and kill their entire family too?

Let me ask you another question oga, why is Nnamdi Kanu in jail?

You guys should stop and reason for a moment. Please no be every jargon Oyibo tell una una go dey repeat like idiots.

See this wretched boy comparing Mali and Burkina to Nigeria. Obviously, you've never travelled out in your entire life.

That's why parents need to make money so their children can travel and not be typing nonsense like this churchrat.

Stfu and stop talking like a prepubescent kid.

Yankee101:
Military regimes are hated for reason like this
No rights

While i don't totally like military rule, it does have its advantages, when APC put a ban on twitter, its something similar to this, if Nigeria is lucky to have a reasonable military govt, it's better than this thing we call democracy.....if you go back in time you would discover that most good infrastructures and institutions in Nigeria were built and established by military govts....

What is the difference with what MC Oluomo and apc did during elections.

tegrianonigltd:



Buhari Wey ban Twitter and co, even fine AIT and some things na Wetin?? Dss picks you up if you tal anyhow. In democracy

There are defamation laws And broadcasting Codes... If allegations are backed up with evidence, then a Court Can easily reverse any fine imposition by NBC. In military regime, the station owner will disappear.

Oblongata:
It is ECOWAS and AU calling the shots...

BAT is just a chairman.

Don't get it twisted!

As chairman and it's capacity, he can throw some weights on what can become 😏🕶️

He can still stop the war.

Wainey:
This is what a military govt looks like, it is still fresh for now, wait until military don settle down then you will understand that even freedom to life is not guarantee when you have a dictator

When you advocate for democracy no matter how poorly it is administered people think one is crazy. A coup might be widely supported in the beginning, but give it times it starts to pinch painfully. If the military took over Nigeria (we don't pray for such sha) all this people shouting IPOB and ESN will be the first the coupist will want to hunt down because they don't like any form of contention. Shay Ohaneze Ndibo and the SE govt held meeting to discuss the atrocities of Simon Ekpa and call for the release of MNK. The state governors visit Tinubu over the issue. Military Government will order them to produce Simon Ekpa or Suffer the consequences of failure. Shay we dey fit insult or leaders criticize them, make Memes, even Reno will have to leave the country or risk death. You don't know what you have in democracy no matter how poorly till the military takes it away.

Is are all these francophone countries free under France? How can you have 65% your foreign reserves kept in France and you are only allowed to access 20% of your own money and even the. You must play interest o. Your own money? What kind of freedom is that?

Guy who gave you this information where did you read it from?

casualobserver:
MALI HAS JUST DEFINITIVELY PUT AN END TO ITS DEPENDENCE ON FRANCE
BY CANCELING THE 11 COLONIAL AGREEMENTS IMPOSED ON AFRICAN COUNTRIES SINCE 1960.

BREAKING OF THE COLONIAL AGREEMENTS WITH FRANCE. I INVITE YOU TO UNDERSTAND THE MALIAN CASE AGAINST IMPERIALIST FRANCE🇫🇷

After independence, 14 French-speaking countries signed 11 agreements with France which are as follows :

AGREEMENT n⁰1:

THE COLONIAL DEBT TO REPAY THE BENEFITS OF COLONIZATION.

That is to say that the newly independent states must reimburse the cost of the infrastructures built by France during the colonization.
We are always looking for the details of the costs, the evaluation of the benefits and the payment conditions imposed by France on African countries.

AGREEMENT N⁰ 2 :

THE AUTOMATIC CONFISCATION OF NATIONAL FINANCIAL RESERVES.

That is to say that African countries must deposit their financial reserves with the Banque de France. Thus, France has been "guarding" the financial reserves of fourteen African countries since 1961: Benin, Burkina Faso, Guinea Bissau, Ivory Coast, Mali, Niger, Senegal, Togo, Cameroon, the Central African Republic, Chad, Congo-Brazzaville, Equatorial Guinea and Gabon.

Thus, the governance of monetary policies remains asynchronous and incomplete due to the fact that it is managed directly by the French government, without any link with the financial authorities of countries such as ECOWAS or CEMAC.

Thus, due to the conditions that bind the banks of the 14 countries of the CFA economic and financial zones, they are obliged to keep 65% of their foreign exchange reserves in an operations account maintained by the French Treasury, as well as an additional 20% in order to cover "financial risks".

In addition, the banks of the CFA zones impose a credit limit on each member country, equivalent to 20% of state revenues in the current budget year, although the BEAC or the BCEAO have higher withdrawal possibilities from the French Treasury. These withdrawals must first be the subject of the agreement of the French Treasury.
The final decision therefore rests with the French Treasury, which has itself invested the reserves of African countries on the Paris stock exchange.

In other words, 85% of African financial reserves are deposited in an operation account controlled by the French administration.

The two banks in the CFA zone are African by their names, but do not decide any of the monetary policies by themselves.
The worst thing is that the countries themselves do not even know how much of their financial reserves are due to them.

AGREEMENT n⁰3 :

THE RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL ON ANY RAW OR NATURAL RESOURCE DISCOVERED IN THE COUNTRY.

That is to say that France has the first right to purchase the natural resources of the land of its former colonies. It is only after France has said: "I am not interested", that African countries are allowed to look for other partners.

AGREEMENT n⁰4 :

PRIORITY TO FRENCH INTERESTS AND COMPANIES IN PUBLIC PROCUREMENT AND PUBLIC TENDERS.

In the awarding of public contracts, French companies have priority over tenders. Even if African countries can get better value for money elsewhere.

As a result, in most of the former French colonies, all the economic levers of the countries are in the hands of French expatriates. In Côte d'Ivoire, for example, French companies own and control all major public services including water, electricity, telephone, air transport, ports and major banks. It is the same in trade, construction and agriculture.

AGREEMENT n⁰5 :

EXCLUSIVE RIGHT TO PROVIDE MILITARY EQUIPMENT AND TRAIN MILITARY OFFICERS OF THE COLONIES.

Thanks to a sophisticated system of scholarships, grants, and the "defense agreements" attached to the colonial pact, Africans must send their senior officers for training in France and are obliged to provide themselves with military equipment with France.

AGREEMENT n⁰6 :

THE RIGHT FOR FRANCE TO DEPLOY TROOPS AND INTERVENE MILITARILY IN THE COUNTRY TO DEFEND ITS INTERESTS.

Under the so-called "defense agreements" attached to the colonial pact, France has the right to intervene militarily in African countries, and also to permanently station troops in military bases and installations, entirely managed by the French.

AGREEMENT n⁰7 :

THE OBLIGATION TO MAKE FRENCH THE OFFICIAL LANGUAGE OF THE COUNTRY AND THE LANGUAGE FOR EDUCATION.

An organization for the French language and the dissemination of French culture has even been created. It is called the "Francophonie" and has several satellite organizations. These organizations are affiliated to and controlled by the French Minister of Foreign Affairs.

AGREEMENT n⁰8 :

THE OBLIGATION TO USE THE CFA FRANC (FRANC OF THE FRENCH COLONIES IN AFRICA).*

Although this system is not shared by the European Union, the French colonies are forced to use the FCFA exclusively.

AGREEMENT n⁰9 :

THE OBLIGATION TO SEND TO FRANCE, AN ANNUAL BALANCE SHEET AND A REPORT ON THE STATE OF RESERVES. NO REPORT, NO MONEY.

That is to say that the director of the central banks of the former colonies presents the said report at the annual meetings of the Ministers of Finance on the former colonies. This report is then compiled by the Banque de France and the French Treasury.

AGREEMENT n⁰10 :

RENOUNCE ANY MILITARY ALLIANCE WITH OTHER COUNTRIES, UNLESS AUTHORIZED BY FRANCE.

Most of these countries only have military alliances with their ex-colonizers simply because France forbade them any other military alliance.

AGREEMENT n⁰11 :

THE OBLIGATION TO ALLY WITH FRANCE IN THE EVENT OF WAR OR A GLOBAL CRISIS.

More than a million African soldiers fought for the defeat of Nazism and fascism during the Second World War. Now that France is militarily linked to the European Union, NATO and the United States, Africa will de facto be committed to the side of France in the event of the 3rd World War.

Dear fellow Africans, eleven (11) agreements are still in force between France and the 14 countries of the CFA zone, and no French media or their so-called African specialists will ever talk about these sinister agreements that have been imposed on the African countries of the CFA zone.

Dear compatriots, that is why we do not stop denouncing this colonization which has now been practiced since 1960, by interposed persons, that is to say by leaders of their choices whom they support and whom they protect by imposing dictatorship on them in front of their own peoples.

What interests us today among these eleven agreements is the tenth (n⁰ 10) which says that the 14 countries of the CFA zone through the agreement, are not authorized to have a military alliance with other countries and are also not authorized to buy military equipment in another European country without the authorization of France,
that is why Mali has been blocked until today. But the situation has been unblocked, Mali can now freely cooperate with all the countries of the planet without asking France for permission.

DEAR COMPATRIOTS, IN VIEW OF ALL THESE MORAL, PHYSICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL SCAMS, THE NEW AFRICAN GENERATION MUST DO ITS PART TO RESTORE THE NATIONAL ACHIEVEMENTS OF OUR CONTINENT IN ORDER TO LEAVE A WORTHY LEGACY TO FUTURE GENERATIONS.

GRAH KOSSI-KOSSI.

These indomie kids are the once who voted overwhelmingly for Buhari despite all the warning from older sensible folks who experienced Buhari's military government.

Under Tinubu, some indomie kids love Tinubu blindly, while some of them hate him equally blindly.

Indomie kids who hate Tinubu blindly tend to blindly hate everything Tinubu does, whether good or bad. If Tinubu is against coup in Niger indomie kids are in support of the coup and are even praying for similar thing in Nigeria!

Indomie kids don't understand that the worse democratic government is still far better than the most benevolent military dictatorship.

A summit of the French and all African governments was supposed to prepare the way to a new kind of relationship, but it had to be postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The plan was to discuss projects and solutions for building sustainable cities and regions in Africa, so as to meet the challenges posed by the massive urbanization in the coming decades.

Nathalie Yamb is skeptical."Françafrique, Afrique-France - you can play with words, but it doesn't change the system," she said. In her opinion, relations between France and the French-speaking African countries have deteriorated further under the present French president. "I even think Emmanuel Macron is one of the worst president in that sense, that he's actually like [former French President Charles] de Gaulle. He's actually not hiding his will to forcefully maintain the relationship between Africa and France."

Small progress

Caroline Roussy agrees that the president made some mistakes when he first came into office. "For instance, when he convened the presidents of the G5 Sahel instead of going to see them." But he also took positive action, Roussy adds. "He placed Rwandan Foreign Minister Louise Mushikiwabo at the head of the International Organization of Francophonie and promised to return most of the African artifacts stored in French museums.

"If France loses Africa, France is nothing", Yamb counters. "Macron is trying to impose on Africa a relationship that Africans no longer want," she maintains. As an example, she points out the recent agreement between France and eight members of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) on replacing the CFA franc with a new West African single currency called Eco.

"The Eco is a very old Ecowas project, which France has decided to hijack. They say they're changing the system, but they're only changing the name," Yamb said. "It must be an initiative of an African government. It can't be announced, designed or planned by France."

Africa first

According to the agreement, the Central Bank of West African States (BCEAO) will no longer have to deposit half of its foreign exchange reserves with the Banque de France as was the case until now. However, the fixed parity with the euro will be maintained, allegedly to prevent inflation. At least this will put an end to remittances from Africa to France. But it will not enable an African independent monetary policy.

In the past, African countries paid up to 65% of their foreign exchange reserves into the French treasury. "It sounds incredible but African governments don't know how much money in the treasury belongs to each individual country," says researcher Ian Taylor. He accuses France of re-declaring African money as development aid for the original depositors, thereby projecting its power in the region.

"The CFA has to go. It is such a ridiculous neo-colonial stunt by the French that it should have gone 60 years ago. The first step is to try to kill CFA, to try to actually move towards true independence for Francophone Africa, which would basically kill Françafrique", Taylor sums up. 60 years after independence, the francophone countries need African elites who are prepared to put Africa first.

My advice to you is to read up on France’s stranglehold of its former colonies because even without Nigerias intervention the desire of French speaking Africa to decouple from France could bring world war 3 to our door step. At least you owe it to yourself to know what the war is really about.

You people just like talking sha! Is Nigeria fighting the country or the junta? Nigeria has been take care of same Niger for years infact, Niger relied heavily on Nigeria govt. So if Nigeria that's been playing a big brother role can't be respected again then needs to deal with the military junta. By the time Nigeria sent their Tucano to conduct area reconnaissance and give them a warning strike they will come to the table to negotiate. Ask Gamhia how far during Buhari tenure

Streetdoctor:

dont mind d ancestor, who thinks that governance is like agbero Park. D first mistake Tinubu made was that 7 days ultimatum, had it being he started with dialogue/negotiation I believe dis whole thing won't hv escalated to dis level. Maybe d coupist would hv come to roundtable for negotiation. But ancestor Tinubu being an arrogant fellow thinks that everything revolves around him.
U don't threatened military just like that and expect them to succumb.

ECOWAS gave 7 days ultimatum ..
I am not sure.. the military overthrew a civilian government just for another country to come over and talk them through and they give it back to the same civilian government they worked and planned well to remove..

In all of the military coups that has never happened..
What the juntas need to sucum to defeat is war and sanctions or possibly more military rulers overthrowing the present ones until one is willing to transfer power to a new elected government..
