And they will still have to use ECOWAS ports, fly through Ecowas countries, depend on ecowas for every aspect of their economy including electricity and education.

Must be nice to live in such grand delusion

Lol...they are already negotiating with Morocco and Mauritania(Mauritania is not an Ecowas member) to use their ports. Mind you those guys has Russia and China backing, these nations can pull resources and build ambitious projects(like trans Sahara highways and railways) for movement of people and goods.

I knew this would eventually happen, this is the result of ECOWAS failure to remove them

But I wonder how these landlocked countries will survive on their own without the rest of the regional block, some of them still depend heavily on their neighbors for so many things


By helping your neighbor, you are also helping yourself.

A stable Niger republic and ECOWAS will definitely benefit Nigeria

You're a fooool .... No cap.

That wasn't an insult but just the state you are. Couldn't you think that if they really depend on your "great ECOWAS" they'd never have survived up till now ?

But trust paid / unreasonable sycophant, they'd rather choose to appear stewpid.

So, you're indeed a foooool

I support all freedoms, from UK leaving the EU, countries leaving ECOWAS, Palestine independence to Yoruba/Biafra/North leaving Nigeria.

You will not really blame people for that type of reaction. The blacks have a problem of fathoming the possibility of bravery of their kind. They may not have issues with a UK leaving EU, but can't just live with the reality of equal aggression of their kind.

Niger republic has nothing to offer Nigeria. These countries have only been benefiting from Nigeria. They are obviously among those enjoying fuel subsidy na.

Going by your logic, when Nigeria was ruled by the military, it wasn't stable, right? Is their country not more stable than Nigeria that has had civilians as president?

You are very shallow in your understanding of what's happening in those Sahel countries.

Benin Republic has lifted its sanctions against Niger using it's Ports.
Algeria which shares border with Niger has offered them use of its Ports and they are not part of ECOWAS.
Morocco has sent envoys to Burkina Faso to discuss using Morocco ports and plans to establish a railway corridor.

Russia has signed an MOU and they are currently doing feasibility on building a nuclear power plant in Mali and Burkina Faso.

Niger just commissioned a 30MW Solar power plant and more will follow to ween itself from dependence on Nigeria for electricity.

Since France left these countries there's been a remarkable improvement in security and fught against terrorism (tells us a lot) as Malian forces captured Kidal held by terrorists for 10 years within 2 weeks of heavy fighting.

Niger is now making more money from its Uranium than in the past 50 years since they are no longer selling only to France as middle man.

Burkina Faso is constructing its first Gold processing factory and its leader Captain Traore has a masters degree in Geology.

Nigerians are selling foodstuffs to Niger in the North and getting paid in CFA and converting to Dollar and back to Naira, making more money while prices skyrocket in Nigeria beyond the reach of many citizens.

Lastly, Russia and China have been giving them cover at the United Nations Security Council. Russia insisted that the UN peacekeeping mission in those countries should be dissolved and it was done

They want to form an association of broke-ass countries that will further impoverish their citizens! grin

What has been the benefit of ECOWAS to Nigeria, by the way?

For all I know, ECOWAS is just an association that makes Nigeria a dumping ground and compels Nigeria to use her little earnings to keep the body going while Nigeria is being deceived as the Giant of Africa!
I laugh you with this your statement... they will soon start doing better than Nigeria b deceiving yourself that we are the giant of Africa.. eyes go soon clear say we dey in deep shit una government wan go or Dan go borrow money again.. yet they will still loot half of this money n so it will continue until something like what transpired in Mali will happen over here.... Remember they removed corrupt old politicians and the old n corrupt members of d ECOWAS wasn't happy. Go n make ur research n u will find out all d sitting presidents of the current ECOWAS members are above 70 years and when they talk they talk slow n don't forget as u get old so does ur body system due else companies won't require old workers to retire but in Africa u need to b 80 years to b a president.
