Countries that know how to defend their democracies. Not here where crooks steal elections and our political military will just sit and do nothing.

As they say: Those who make peaceful and orderly change impossible (Crooknibu), make violent change inevitable. One of these days shit go hit ceiling fan and every corrupt politician in Nigeria go collect his share like in Ghana and Liberia of old.

Hehehe.

Good one.

Watch as AU and ECOWAS rush to condemn the action. They sit down and watch corruption, nepotism and election rigging take over Africa and they do nothing,but once the people react they start to talk .

The west also watch as Africa leaders plunder the resources of Africa and they do nothing,but will be quick to react once the people want to take their destiny in their hands.

Mr Biden,the gay right activist is only concern about Africa only when is has to do with deviant's,I mean the LGBTQ people.
He comes up with his usual,I will stop aid's and bla bla bla once his project LGBTQ is threaten in Africa. But you will never see him talk about election rigging and corruption in Africa.

Africa will continue to experience such actions until they start doing the right thing.
Smart

Gabon has no economical value to Africa/Europe.........this would raise bit of dust.............
To see this comment and see 70 plus likes shows how poor the Naija educational system and how low our ppl take personal development. The ex president once sent 5 million dollars to help Chirac fund an election campaign in France.

Gabonese have a low population but big mineral wealth.

Read what I wrote again.
I said condemn, which they normally do.
They must not be from the same region before they speak about it.

If the West and America are vocal about the happenings in Africa,why won't their own brothers do the same.
Okay. From your analysis, did SADEC or any regional body in Africa condemn the coups in West Africa?
The West and America you call have a huge interest in Africa and its resources. There is poor regional integration in Africa

Seems revolution is finally here now in mother Africa (especially in French Colonies).

I suspect this is coming because the oppositions have no voice again, citizens choice are override and citizens are silenced when they raise an eyebrows. The military seems to be intervening for the citizens.
I hope Nigerian politicians are watching. . Let them continue to oppress the masses . . We are watching. . In HD / 4K resolution.

But you'll now be able to go to their country and settle without visa. Same thing with those fools fighting for independence of impoverished Puerto Rico from US. Because they failed Puerto Ricans are now automatically US citizens! What if they had succeeded in gaining that independence??! Not every independence is good
How many South Africans are automatically able to settle in anywhere in the world without visa , South Africans are third class citizens in their own country

Take note of the word I quoted "pretext"

If you say that the bongo family ran Gabon like their personal property and the people were fed up with that, how then was that a "pretext" for the removal of Ali Bongo?
Pretext means excuse.are you ok at all?

Shush! Everyone who doesn't represent your interest is suddenly or share your view is automatically Ibo. How you guys self-service at the slightest mention of what registers in your brain as an insult towards your paymaster beats my imagination.
Take it or leave, the wind of coupe is blowing across the African continent. We don't pray for such in Nigeria and it is not out of place to say that the minds of leaders will skip. Those who are standing now should only be strategic at tightening their inner security and build a population who won't sing the praises of coupe plotters.

So think the naive ones. Those soldiers only seized power to start their own plundering of the resources. Fifty years from, the people will still be languishing in poverty.

Your narrative says it all.

You will detect an Igbo man in just one sentence now matter how hard they try to cover it, the common yoruba or hausas have a proper way of sharing ideas, unlike your Igbos fellows.

And back to the coup plotters , they are no way better than the corrupt democratic govt.

Ask your father at home what Nigeria look like in 1965 to year 2000

I believe ,the 95% of people clamoring for this are the children of hate and perdition that lives in our dear country..

Anyway ,I just pray and I hope they support the military, so that the military can fail in any attempt of coup, because it's been a knowledged from the begining of time that whatever they support must fail., And whatever they criticize must succeed..

I'm.glad they are not supporting Tinubu , so let the military carry on if they so wish...

Yes I am ok. Are you ok?

To add to the meaning of pretext, it means "a pretended reason for doing something that is used to hide the real reason".

If you say that the bongo family ran Gabon like their personal property and the people were fed up with that, how then is removing him based on his wrong doing now a "pretext"?
