Zoo has no subregional influence afterall. It is not by size but by power. Zoo tried to punch above her economic weight by imposing sanctions on other countries when Infact, her own citizens are the poorest people in the world. It was never a sanction against Niger, Burkina Faso and Mali, it was a self imposed sanction by the zoo.

Now Niger, Mali and Burkina Faso will dictate the basis of the regional integration according to their interest.

I thought you Tinubu supporters were wishing all those countries starvation, suffering and death when Tinubu placed sanctions on them,

So as Tinubu removed sanctions you are now wishing them well, Tinubu is using remote on you.

Back to the topic:

I'm still saying it, some people don't still understand why the Igbos will not join any protests against Tinubu, sometimes it's only a matter of time for the truth to reveal itself, sometimes you don't need to fight...

This usually happens when you think with your anus to take decisions. Common sense is sometimes not common.
Tinubu should also swallow his pride & reintroduce subsidy on fuel & diesel

Those guys are no longer interested, and they have moved on. Bad market for ECOWAS. What's the need to rejoin an organization that turned its back on your country when it needed it the most?

Any action that would not lead to the needless death or suffering of an African is a welcome development.

Good job ECOWAS..........We cannot be continually used as tools by the neocolonialists.

No! Nothing hook Tinubu. They were sanctioned to correct them but they have decided to perish. You don't allow them to perish.

What a shame that tinubu has carried his woeful leadership to Ecowas.

Acting foolishly before thinking

He is steadily turning Nigerian and now Ecowas to a laughing stock
