I’m gonna wait to confirm that this is not fake news.

But in the meantime, if it’s true, then congratulations to Tinubu, ECOWAS and their brainless warmongers. They now have more countries to invade.

After invading Niger, they will invade Gabon. Or are they going to invade Niger without invading Gabon? They have to mad not to.

I’m so happy right now, if this news is true. Because I’m sure ECOWAS was already waiting to congratulate President Bongo for winning Third Time in a “free and fair” election even though the report of the Gabonese Electoral Umpire shutting down their Electronic Infrastructure, like INEC did, and even removing names of opponents from ballot papers has been everywhere.

Another reason I like this is that the PEPT will see what is happening in other countries because of disputed election. People are waiting on them to do justice, failure of which no one knows what the outcome will be.

Democracy is fast becoming unpopular in Africa and it’s because of poor Electoral management. The situation where votes no longer reflect the wishes of the majority of the voters, their will be disenchantment with the people seeking alternative way out.

If a coup happens in Nigeria today, Nigerians will celebrate it because we didn’t vote for the idiot in power.

If the PEPT likes, let it insult Nigerians like INEC did, let’s see what the outcome will be.

Succinctly couched!

Good one.

Watch as AU and ECOWAS rush to condemn the action. They sit down and watch corruption, nepotism and election rigging take over Africa and they do nothing,but once the people react they start to talk .

The west also watch as Africa leaders plunder the resources of Africa and they do nothing,but will be quick to react once the people want to take their destiny in their hands.

Mr Biden,the gay right activist is only concern about Africa only when is has to do with deviant's,I mean the LGBTQ people.
He comes up with his usual,I will stop aid's and bla bla bla once his project LGBTQ is threaten in Africa. But you will never see him talk about election rigging and corruption in Africa.

Africa will continue to experience such actions until they start doing the right thing.

Hmmm! Gabon is in central Africa, not West Africa. So ECOWAS has no business in what is happening in central Africa

Read what I wrote again.
I said condemn, which they normally do.
They must not be from the same region before they speak about it.

If the West and America are vocal about the happenings in Africa,why won't their own brothers do the same.

Gabon's former President Omar Bongo had 70 bank accounts, 39 apartments, 2 Ferraris, 6 Mercedes Benz cars, 3 Porsches, and a Bugatti in France.

He ruled for 42 years (from 1967 to 2009).

His son, Ali Bongo, has been president since 2009.

He has just been overthrown in a coup.

Nobody told our Yoevba brothers not to invade Niger. But if you want to do that, March the soldier into Benin Republic from Ogun state and launch your invasion from there.

Don't carry your fo0lishness near northern borders.

It's as simple as that.

Absolutely, so many uninformed people.
The popularity of any leader goes up and down, so overthrowing a government due temporary dip in popularity doesn't make sense.
It only guarantees unending turmoil and anarchy.

The result was tight so you can't say it was rigging per se.the issue is that he has overstayed,people are tired of the bongo dynasty.it is not always about rigging but sit-tightism and poor leadership.did bazoum rig himself? Was there rigging in Burkina and Mali?

He did not say Gabon is ECOWAS county. He was making emphasis. I know that Monika very well in this forum, I know you here too, you can not match him academically likewise you can't lace the shoe of a typical Obidient too. Of course your rant that Obidients are olodos ends here on Nairaland, come out and challenge a typical Obidient academically, I want to check something.
An Obidient collated the IREV results for everyone else, that's a tedious academic activity to engage in, you and your fellow supporters did not do it, be there shouting Obidients are olodos when it's the other way round
