It’s not as simplistic as a lot of you think it’s. The western world’s survival when it comes to global domination is dependent on the exploitation of African countries and cheap resources from Africa hence Africa is utter poor and underdeveloped.

Africa’s biggest problem is neither corruption (the west is more corrupt than the most corrupt countries in Africa) nor inability to use its vast resources (African ancestors built great civilisations with these resources in isolation, so the ingenuity is there) to its advantage - it’s neocolonialism.

Francophone countries still pay colonial tax in 2023 and they don’t even have independent currencies. They’re all basically still France’s satellite colonies. So, something has to give and since these men have decided to change their reality - they’re brave men and the spirit of Thomas Sankara will guide them.

The coups are mostly geopolitical - Nigeria has nothing to worry about. It’s not going to get to Nigeria - so Tinubu needs to stay out of it and tell Lagbaja to watch his boys.

Paul Biya has ruled Cameroon (Nigeria’s neighbour in the BH axis) for 40yrs and Quattara has ruled Ivory Coast for almost a decade or more. Those are the dictators that Nigeria should be looking for a way to oust from power. But it won’t because those 2 clowns are French puppets.

Western countries need to either do the right thing by paying the market price for these resources or get the Bleep out of the continent.
You have valid points, South Africa is a western puppet yet it's more developed than these countries, same as Algeria who is a puppet to France.
The major problem lies with us.
We can send them out all we want (which is necessary) but it doesn't solve even half the problem.
How much do we really want to develop ourselves.
Africàñs especially Nîgeriàns go through schools and teachers (who speak out against slavery) makes it look like a crîmè if the student doñ't know the capital of UK, capital of france, Germany etc.
Yet the citizens of those countries can't even name a single city in the whole of Africa.
The problem is more from within than without.
Tinubu is trying to show that Nigèria is a powerful country, which I don't support, but to think that sending the West out will solve our problem is delusions of the highest degree.
About 23 states in Nigeria has good deposit of silica sand, how many glass industries do we have, we still import most of our glasses, our lands are good for agriculture yet Nigèria keep finding itself in food crîsès every now and then.
The west are not involved in these two, yet we can't make good use of them.
I'm sure if the west didn't come for our oil, we wouldn't have done anything with it just like so many minerals being wasted in our country.
Lithium is here in Nigeria but we haven't done anything with yet.
Tesla is requesting to come and take raw lithium away and Nigèria is insisting that they use it here within the country, aside that, we haven't done anything with it.
We have more problem within than without.

Presently, Nigèria as a country has a very large expanse of arable land they can use for agriculture, yet they are not using, Nigeria has a very large deposit of silica sand for glass production on a large scale, yet they are not using it, Nigèria has a huge deposit of lithium, yet they are not using it and so many many other deposits they are not using.
What does it tell u?
We only value our resources and know their importance only when westerners come to mine them.
If Europeans had come here to be using our land for agriculture, we will blame them for our underdeveloped agriculture, same as if they came for silica sand, we will blame for not having functional and great glass industries.
If France leaves Niger Uranium today, in another 50 years they still wón't supply electricity to even 40% of their population.
I don't expect u to understand because mentally lazy folks always look for where to place bIame and absorb themselves of their faiIures.
Just like Africàñs are readily doing.

why the hell would a black man be interested in Uranium....??
for what....??
fact remains its under our feets and we should be accordingly paid for it....
because you are not usin your bicycle doesnt mean the neighbor has the right to steal it from you....

South Africa today isn’t a western puppet and the history of South Africa is different from the rest of Sub-Saharan Africa. South Africa was developed because white people never thought they would lose out in the power play in the country (basically what Israel is doing to Palestine) and most of Southern Africa and the country was meant to be the Australia and New Zealand of Africa. However, the war in Angola and the fall out from that war broke the back of apartheid all over Southern Africa (read about the Angolan civil war and how it changed the history of Southern Africa). Cubans with the backing of the Soviet Union played a major role in how most of Southern Africa became black countries hence they still wave Cuban flags in that region.

The same thing is playing out in the Sahel right now albeit with different actors and it’s bigger than Nigeria. Hence Nigeria needs to stay out of it.

Algeria isn’t a puppet of France and the country has the most vile anti-French sentiment on the planet. Macron went there last year to improve relations between the two countries and he was pelted with water. Algeria is mostly a Russian ally albeit it has cordial relations with the US. Algeria is also one of the biggest buyers of Russian weapons and it gets some Russian weapons even before the Russian army (that’s how deep the relationship is).

I don’t think you read that much if you think Africans lack the brain power to use the resources on the continent to their advantage. Ile Ife made glass beads in isolation in the rain forest at a time when no empire or kingdom in the world was doing it, at an industrial scale and turned it into currency. The British Industrial Revolution had its genesis in white slave masters learning iron smelting from African slaves. (Read it here: https://amp.theguardian.com/science/2023/jul/05/industrial-revolution-iron-method-taken-from-jamaica-briton). African slaves from Sahel taught Europeans rice farming, etc. What makes you think a race of people who exhibited this ingenuity in the past can’t do the same thing today?

Africa’s biggest problem is neo-colonialism. Even China didn’t rise under it was cut away from the west and was under sanctions and embargo. And that was when it had to look inwards. And when the west came back to use the country for cheap labour - it cheated the system and used it to its advantage. Or was the exploited Opium Wars China able to build anything?

Like I said in my previous post: it’s not as simplistic as a lot of you think it’s. Africa will rise in a world where there’s a level playing field and no neo-colonialism. That’s the truth and it’s evident in how a lot of west Africans in diaspora outperform their white counterparts in all walks of life.

It will go over your head because you’re a slave.

Only brave people break themselves free from the shackles of slavery.

France has no uranium yet it’s the biggest exporter of nuclear energy and 1 out 3 bulbs in France is powered by Niger’s uranium.

Niger is one of the largest exporters of uranium yet almost 80% of the population has no electricity. And why’s that? - France basically takes Niger’s uranium for free because it pays the country with CFA it prints. So, it’s basically exchanging paper with Niger’s uranium.

The same thing with Mali and its gold.

These are brave men - a cowardly slave like you won’t be able to relate.

lol and the only way to solve those issues is by running a coup.....okay.....nice to see you have no sense......what plans have the military laid out in terms of their uranium exports? What refining capabilities does the country have to sell refined uranium? What plans to refine the uranium does the military have that will create shortterm effects to help the economy? Or you think to start a uranium facility is a 1 day job? For your mind now that the military is in charge everything in the country will automatically get better? ask yourself why an entire Nation celebrated when Abacha died? If they want to serve under a dictatorship that's good for them, but having delusions that their lives are just going to get better is stupidity in its highest order.....

Niger Coup: Burkina Faso Military President Steps In, Vows To Support Niger Against ECOWAS Invasion, Writes Russia For Technical And Military Assistance A request for technical and military assistance has been submitted to Russian President Vladimir Putin to technically and materially support this initiative.

By Jake Clifford Last updated Jul 31, 2023


The Faso Presidency has learned with dismay the serious sanctions imposed on Niger by CEDEAO on Sunday 30th July 2023 in Abuja. To that end, she informs the public that in anticipation of the conclusions of this summit, the President of the Transition, Head of State, Captain Ibrahim TRAORE and the President of the Malian Transition, Colonel Assimi GOITA, during their meeting in Saint Petersburg, July 27, 2023 agreed to stand ready to assist Niger, against any violation of its territorial Integrity to technically and materially support this initiative. During their face-to-face meeting, they also spoke by telephone with Lieutenant Colonel Mamadi Doumbouya, the Head of State of Guinea who is a member of the project. In addition, they have trained their technical services to quickly study solutions to be adopted by the two countries in order to help soften the likely economic and humanitarian sanctions that the CEDEAO summit would adopt against Niger.

You will live long. Africa should stop dancing to the tune others are playing. There is a sentence that I like in the ECOWAS briefing:Africa has come of age.

When you recall that the Okoro were the first to stage a coup on the continent , then you will understand why they are supporting this renewed wave of CIA/MI6/Mossad sponsored coup on the continent.

These are the same cretins that actively worked for and supported the truncation of June 12.

These are the same people who lined up behind Abacha.

I have written here that the Okoro will forever seek to destroy any institution that he loses out from.

They are not in anyway a democratic people.

Forget that nonesense about comparing themselves to the great Greek city states.

They were neither republican nor democratic in nature.
