The Economic Community Of West Africa States has imposed fresh sanctions over the coup in Niger Republic.

The regional bloc had earlier given Niger junta seven days to reinstate President Mohamed Bazoum or risk sanctions, including possible military action.

But the coupists called the bluff of ECOWAS and vowed to resist any foreign intervention on its soil.

It also severed ties with Nigeria, Togo, France and the US, and shut down Nigerien airspace indefinitely.

At the end of the ultimatum, the bloc scheduled a meeting for Thursday to review the situation in the West African nation.

Addressing State House correspondents on Tuesday, Presidential spokesman, Ajuri Ngelale, said more sanctions had been imposed on the individuals and entities relating with the military junta in the Niger Republic.

Although he did not go into details, he said this was carried out through the Central Bank of Nigeria.

I pity those coup plotters honestly.. they don't know warfare has gone beyond physical show of force. If not for the conventions that prohibit use of chemical and biological weapons, Niger republic for know wetin hit them when scientists enter lab and re-engineer viruses and biological agents.

Rayban25:
what is this one saying?

Even if biological and chemical warfare was allowed in your own shallow mind you think that will still be the best option to use?
what is wrong with tinubu supporters sef?

flokii:
You can't think outside the box.. that's one big problem with most of you.

What if the erstwhile colonizers they are fighting decide to unleash something terrible on them there?.. can Niger fight back? Do they have anything in Niger republic to fight biological warfare??

Use your number six ok? It won't hurt.

It's a collective decision by Ecowas members to impose more sanctions on the juntas. But watch the children of thief Peter Obi single out Tinubu for insults. Awon asinwin

Rayban25:

flokii:
You aren't smart if you don't know biological warfare is efficient once there are antidotes to reverse the effects than using guns..
I am.not advocating for the use of those deadly weapons so I won't engage you further.. The summary of my post is that the Niger coupists still think the world is in the stone age when guns and tanks are feared.

Ofunaofu:
And watch a demented Tinubu minion bring Peter Obi and his supporters into the discourse when the subject matter got absolutely nothing to do with it

Rayban25:
youre just saying rubbish. and you think youre making sense because it sounds good on paper

Antidote? you think youre watching movie or what? do you know how long it takes to create both the virus and still test if their "antidote" will work? talkless of now being used by africans again?

Ogbeni shut up please. Even your agbado peers on this thread know youre not making any sense.

festacman:
This sanction stuff looks like a script written by France and US. But at least it saves ECOWAS face and defuses tension in Niger.

Interesting to see how long the Junta will keep up with this cat and mouse play before settling down for actual governance because as it is currently, the country is standstill. The current situation doesn't help Niger's economy.
