Africa’s Growing Coup Tolerance By Monday Philips Ekpe by Racoon(m): 2:05pm On Sep 08, 2023 |
The memories of the April 22, 1990 military coup in Nigeria have refused to leave me. I left my house in Ojodu, Lagos that morning for a church service in Ikeja, oblivious of the historic operation underway. My decision to first visit a cousin in Ikeja led me into the gathering of his neighbours listening attentively to the voice of Gideon Orkar who was addressing the nation “on behalf of the Nigerian armed forces.”https://www.thecable.ng/africas-growing-coup-tolerance/amp 1 Like

President Ali Bongo who had led the oil-rich country since 2009 and whose father, Omar, had virtually pinned the former French colony down from 1967 till Ali took over, was only denied the opportunity to enjoy another rigged term in office occasioned by twisted constitutional provisions and massively flawed elections.The power desperate tyrannical and autocratic power despots ehen! The military governments in Mali, Sudan,Niger, Burkina Faso and now Guinea are more legitimate than what is down here at the moment. What do we call the government in Nigeria? 9 Likes |

The solemn truth is that the immediate and remote causes of military incursion into African politics are still plaguing the continent; -Sit tight mentality to political power. -Subversion of democratic & constitutional processes as they crave absolutism or totalitarianism in govt. -Criminalization of state capture; military, judiciary, legislature, demonisation of opposition elements( no room for participatory democracy). -Connivance of relevant region or subregional bodies in legalising the illegality/unconstitutional govt who subvert constitution, democratic will of the people etc. 11 Likes |

I don't know what's wrong with Nigerians who are praying for a coup to happen in this country. Our pattern of governance and leadership has successfully eradicated the chances of a military coup. Top military and police officers are now in the eating arrangement and you will not be thinking of a coup when you have money and also have power. Those people doing a coup only have power but don't have the key to their treasuries. That's why they are angry. All the countries that ousted their leaders via military coups, how are they now faring? Does it mean they are now better than the rest of the African countries? If the person you're supporting loses the election, that is not the reason you should be praying for a military coup to happen because it will create a lot of instability and armed conflict in Nigeria. 1 Like |

To the children raise with Hatred and requesting a Coup, I hope they are ready for what they are asking for? Well, they should relax, we would soon go regional and gradually set the line for Segregation, then they can do anything with their region.

Why is everyone acting surprised? like it was unexpected with all the evils done in the name of democracy. Just like Obasanjo asked "How many African countries have benefited from Democracy"? |
