IVORY2009:
Militocracy is highly recommended, an average African leader is very corrupt, the military has a way of putting the in place disciplinary measures to tackle corruption, which the civilian administration can not do.

A government having forced itself into power in a similar way the putschist did in the Niger Republic, cannot be arrogating itself the honour to lead a puritan force against a sovereign nation. The process leading to any electoral activity is a lot more important than its outcome.The processes that led to the 2023 general election were skewed, manipulated, and rigged.

A government that came into office through such illegal means does not have the moral justification to begin to query a similar process perpetrated outside the shores of this country. If the election is wantonly manipulated, a govt that emerged from such a process is similar to a military coup.

A coup is actually where people extend their limit beyond what is being provided by the constitution. When you rig yourself into election, it is also a coup. The process or procedural sequence is being contested. Emancipation from mental slavery, none but us could free our minds( Bob Nesta Robert Marley).

As for me BIAFRA confederation will be a better place to live in.naija no fit better,read my lips.

Better the oppostion unites around PDP in 2027, and gets rid of APC once and for all.

Coup always ends with the same old corrupt system in place, only this time with more repression.

If we want better governance, we got to put pressure on the people in power. Coup would not only make matters worse, but if the army rulers turn out to be awful, we won't have any means of putting pressure on them.

Emilokan your time is coming. This coup go go round

A coup is the last thing Nigeria needs right now..
Only genuine enemies of Nigeria will pray for a coup at this point..

Unproductive meetings ....the mean reason they always want to met is to flex life ...carry prostitutes...both people who use gun to get to power and those who bought state institutions to get to power is the same ..one used money to buy power while the other one use money to buy guns and use it to get to power..same people

Even president Obasanjo said Africa is not ready for the Western type of democracy yet. Was he calling for a coup? Truth is sacred and sacrosanct.

zombieHUNTER:
Democracy is not for Africa...

Even Obasanjo agrees

DavSagacity:
Their merger will result to effort in futility if they fail to select and agree on credible candidate to challenge the corrupt government in town. Honestly Nigeria has grown beyond the phase where old men will be the one running the affairs of the country. We will not grow or develop. But will keep going to other nations to borrow and borrow.

I really wish you know what you are exactly saying

mastermaestro:


They have no idea what military dictatorship entails. If it was a military regime, would anyone even dare demand a change of government online? I am sure those asking for it think it is fun and freedom. I go don port from Naija before their evil wish go come to pass.

maasoap:


After he enjoyed 8 years and still made attempts to make it 12 years and perhaps more
Dumb people now quoting the same Obasanjo, lol

zombieHUNTER:


He's been there
done that


He has seen looting
supervised it
under your precious democracy

Baba is old
Remorseful
And is telling you out of experience..
These current politicians aren't doing any differently.. yet here you are encouraging those looting away your future..

shameful.

Agugbadin:

If the opposition unites around PDP, Atiku who will be 81yrs old then will want to hijack the Presidential ticket,that will be worse for this country.

GEJDHERO:
But the politicians are not willing to learn/change....the best is to booth them out with a COUP

nairalanda1:


Idon't think Atiku is coming back.

And anyway even if he comes, the fact is, most Nigerians don't want to form or join an alternative opposition movement, which is something I think they should do, because I do not like PDP.

But for now, PDP , as much as it pains me to say this, is all the viable oppositon we got....yes, it's as bad as APC.

tsdarkside:


do you even understand how many people hate PDP....??

many will still stick to apc....
tinubus relection is already a done deal....

nairalanda1:


And many people don't like APC. Infact more people voted for parties other than APC in the last election than they did for APC. APC won because Obi took away PDP votes in the SE, large parts of the middle belt and Lagos.

Let's be honest. APC came in in 2015, promising change. And yes, PDP was a big mess, a big mess then. But in 8 years, APC was just as bad as PDP. At the end, people wanted a new direction, but oppositon was divided, and we got you guys back.

But even then, history shows a united oppostion always beats the ruling party.
