Is the Niger coup an excellent test to validate the strength of the ECOWAS?

So far, the ECOWAS is showing some strength in their legs to stand up and stand strong.
Is this the perfect time for Africa to finally break the chain of oppression? Only time will tell.
But I must confess that it is amusing and refreshing how the west are consulting with other African countries to figure out the best way forward to resolve the issues in Niger. This has never happened before in the past..and if ECOWAS is successful in peacefully resolving the issues in Niger, the value of their stocks will rise up drastically.
Thank God for the new leadership.. Everything is possible when the head is smart and strong.

But something tells me that the west is not comfortable with how Africa is taking control, hence, they will never allow such a thing to continue. They will find a way to once again break us apart by ensuring that a war breaks out in Niger.

In my own opinion, Africa is not taking over; rather, Russia & China are. It is a case of moving from frying pan to fire.

We don't need to go into our experiences with the west
We are where we are now because of the west

I do know they were very helpful to south African during white minority rule

The only true presidents we ever had...Those other ones are just lucky mofos, especially that one that was the president when Sir Balewa was the PM

We already know why the petrol price is sky high, the president has already presented a few options and also made it clear that he’s determined to make life better for all Nigerians. Whether the man is serious or not, only time will tell. It is now a waiting game, I don’t know what else we can do at this point, but to buckle up and hope for the best.

Though, Instead of entering the trap Buhari’s administration had setup for him by declaring the removal of the fuel subsidy on day 1, I would have preferred the president to sign an executive order to extend it for may be 6 to 8 months while he prepared the best method to efficiently and effectively execute the order.
Apart from this misstep, I do not see any other way out…fuel subsidy had to be knocked out completely.

Furthermore, I would have also preferred the president to list all the names of the small number of Nigerians that have taken advantage of the fuel subsidy. This group of people needs to cough up some of the money they’ve stolen over the years…May be we can use some of this money to properly setup palliatives to make things a lot easier for the Nigerian citizens who are paying heavily for the removal of the fuel subsidy.

Personally attacking a president that has only taken over for 2 months for a system that has been broken for over 30 yrs makes no sense to me.
Just my opinion.

Back to Niger coup vs ECOWAS

In my opinion ECOWAS must be extremely careful with handling the issues surrounding the Niger coup. They have to quickly discover the best way to resolve these issues without completely getting the west involved.

A stronger ECOWAS is equal to a stronger Nigeria and a stronger Africa.

He sure did, will give him that.

Some people are naturally daft

God will bless you! It's Russia and china frying Africa for the bean. the implication is by the time. the plan is finally done, I pray We don't Cry We are fast losing it. China or Russia and not friend in all ramification. no matter what USA better than this two, only hope we're not falling into another wrong trap being set by these Primitive unfriendly countries

I don't think Ecowas is stronger, rather they are more divided. Mali and Burkina Faso yesterday opened their border with Niger, and they are threatening to exit ecowas altogether- something never heard of before in the sub region

Tinubu treated regional geopolitics the way he treated Nigeria's economy- by suddenly removing subsidy and liberalising exchange rate. These are good policies but handled badly.

BY threatening Niger with Military action he put the cart before the horse, and jumping into an arena naked.

Forget the solidarity from the French and Americans on Nigeria's stance, they already have a plan A, B, C, D etc one of them being if Nigeria fails in Niger.

Does Tinubu has a plan B?

They say if you see a child dancing on the road side, the music player is in the Bush. Has Nigeria really studied the intent and motivation behind this coup?

Is it mere opportunistic soldiers riding on trends of Mali and Burkina Faso?

Is it deep seated resentment by the populace against French hold on Niger's resources and economy?

Or is it some thing beyond a new theatre opening of the current proxy war going on in Ukraine?

Yet Nigeria jumped right in the middle

Ecowas is filled with bunch of puppets controlled by Biden and his 4's


Russia and China are coming to liberate Africa from the chains the west had been holding Africa captive


Niger, Burkina Faso , Mali are coming for Nigeria and e go hot


Carry your family japa if you're in Nigeria because war is coming
