Military coup is on the rise again in the continent, especially in West Africa as Guinea Bissau on verge of becoming fourth (4th) country in just 2yrs. For the past two years, the West African subregion has witnessed successive coups d’état, prompting criticisms from all and sundry, including AU and ECOWAS sanctions for the erring countries.

funshint:
I won't be surprised if there is a french connection with all these military coups.

newbornmacho:
Or a Russian connection

funshint:
Nah french....look at the profile of all these coupist. They are mostly France trained.

Even Nigeria need this most, but our military authority are just advance politicians with gun.

They have the worst attribute of bad politicians in this country, together with gun.

If our military is one very discipline & upright institution, they can safe the country by taking power from these politicians, even probably kill most of them, and rule for one year to reorganize the country, then return to democracy with new set of people of Conscience.

But our military can't try that, because the difference between them and Nigeria politicians is gun

newbornmacho:
There are Russian mercenaries in Burkina Faso aiding the coupists

Well I don't know of that. I only know Mali recently invited Russian military advisers to help with their fight against Islamist insurgents.

Not possible in Nigeria!

If the lead coupist is Igbo: He just sanctioned genocide on Igbo people, which might need to another civil war; and the untimely death of the coupists is almost assured.

The lead coupist from the North would shatter the country like a Tomato thrown against a wall, after a brutal civil war.

A Yoruba lead coupist would give other Nigerians the moral justification to exterminate all Yoruba people in West Africa, which might need to another civil war; and the untimely death of the coupists is almost assured.

The strength of Nigeria's democracy is her diversity, and I commend the British for this!!!

Never thought about it though! Majority of the coupists have been northerners.

When the capital was in Lagos, and Nigerians were less angry at Nigeria. Now, with the present atmosphere in the country, a Northern (core North) coup would need to a civil war, certainly!

Let's not forget the ease with which to purchase weapons, in this present time (cryptocurrency + the Internet).

You've consistently been using "need" in place of "lead" in your sentences here. What's up?
