A SUPREMELY dumb thing to say.

As horrible as democracy has been in Africa. It's a GAZILLION times better than Military Rule.

In Democracy, Politicians embezzle money and misbehave. The masses protest. And politicians pretend they'll do better.

In Military Rule, Soldiers embezzle and misbehave. Anyone who protests will be MURDERED. And the Military will tell you they are Saints.

The scope of embezzlement perpetrated by Abacha will RUPTURE your mind.

The scope of PURE evil and brutality perpetrated by Idi Amin makes the Devil look like a cute puppy.

This is NOT a secondary school debate.

Only a person with MENTAL IMPAIRMENT will argue for Military Rule in Africa.

It's just dumb!
So people are not being murdered in democrazy regime abi?

Democracy is People Decides... It comes with Its Bruhaha because Human are Contentious But Democracy is All About Majority Decisions Rule For Room For Minorities to Breathe !

Do you know what a military rule is? Imagine if endsars protest was during a military rule, even with our democratic setting can't you see what inhuman treatment our military personnel are melting in civilians all over the country? In a military rule, them nor born you well to call a military office holder thief be it offline or online.
It is time our Democracy be what it's supposed to be....this pseudo democracy is bull shitz
The courts are corrupt, banks, ministries, bandits and terrorist everywhere, police complicit.....even the Armed forces bribed to hold back while the citizens wallow in poverty and u say one is better than the other..?
Call it wat you want, can't be in hell and say you're somewhere far from heaven
Re: Burkina Faso Coup Leader Captain Ibrahim Traoré Extends Military Rule By 5 Years by Yampotatocarrot(m): 1:49pm On May 26, 2024
Funny, I actually kind of expected this... Been following the guy, he has done more for Burkina Faso in his short term than all their civilian leaders put together, and the people are really happy with him... If he even contests for presidency, he'll definitely win with very high margin

* naira was very strong.
* Health care was better
* Education was good.
* The masses could feed well.
* There was no terrorism.
*security was strong.
Etc

But that's exactly what happened during the 2020 EndSARS protest. So what's the difference you're trying to paint?
During the military rule there was law and order. Food was cheap. Transportation was cheap. Economy was not up to 100th as bad as it became when the civilians took over and started sharing money among their friends and family. Abacha stole a lot of money during his reign, and when part of that money was returned later by the Europeans, the civilian government shared it. So what's the difference?
Please keep shut! Did you experience military rule? You never experienced military rule, you only heard about it. You must be a Gen Z. Don't you ever wish military rule on Nigerian again! Which food was cheap? Or which transportation are you talking about?

Have heard of kill-am-go before? It means the military men do kill people whenever they feel irritated and leave them on the spot and nothing will happen. Do you know the number of lives that were lost.

Yet, they terrible and horrible economic manager. All they are after is to steal.

Imagine what this western brain washed puppet is saying..

Dezeiani Maduke alone looted more than Late sani Abacha.
Obj 16 Billion Dollars power loot is beyond Sani Abacha assets.
During Military Regime of Sani Abacha only had less than 1000 Nigerians death while from Yar'Adua 2009 to 2015 of GEJ took more than 100,000 Nigerians souls in the name of insecurity.
Sani Abacha economics policies is better than Nigeria's democracy from 1999 till date, from vision 2010, PTF, Dollars pegged at less than 70 naira, Petro less than 20 naira per litter and many others National progress.

The economy was thrown into decadence by the military starting from Babangida with SAP - Stuctural Adjustment Program which introduces a number of policies that destroyed the economy from SFEM which led to massive round tripping in Forex Market and so much more to Abacha unprecedented corruption and mass murder of perceived enemies in cold blood.

Putin student.

The guy will have to be brutal enough to create fear in the hearts of his people. Burkina Faso never see anything yet.


The igbos have to keep a cordial relationship with him, in order to create a doubt between bfaso, and niger, in time of conflict.

Good luck to all the countries under military rule, when your cup is full the same civilians you think are a disaster you’ll start yearning for their return.

Only those who want to go back to the Stone Age support military rule

Nigeria acheived great things under military rule than civilian rule.
3rd mainland bridge, birth of rising talents in d 70s to 90s in all walk of life, spirit of nationalism, international recognition, stable fuel price, naira equivalent to dollar, good economy and easy to get jobs, fear to commit crime due to constant firing squad killing at Lagos bar Beach..... Everything was based on competence not politics.

Democracy is a curse to Africa. Look at d state of things. It's only if u are dumb now or very young then.

Go to Burkina Faso and see d great things d young guy is doing. You sit down in your village and be talking trash.

Idiat
We also lost our railways, had a rising debt problem, power cuts began under army rule in 1978 and kept rising, white elephant projects like Ajaokuta, and depreciation of our phone service, as well as worsening debt and tribalisim and some of the worst religious crisis in this country's history.

Economy got worse under army rule too.

Burkina is still a broke ass country last I checked.

This President has more respect than TINUBU you worship internationally.

Isn't that ironic? cheesy
Which respect. You are enemy of Nigeria. I believe you were not born when military was ruling Nigeria. Did you think you can be on social media if military take over Nigeria. You will disappear for ever. Go and ask the people of OGONI LAND how saro Wiwa was murdered in cold blooded by the military junta while fighting for his people while Gani fawehinmi was battling the military junta in court. The children of saro wiwa had to run away from the country.
The first letter Bomb that killed DELE Giwa was orchestrated by Babangida,, Go and ask how many times Gani fawehinmi was incarcerated for nothing. The list goes on and on. I pray you don't witness military regime. Even the president of Nigeria BAT and others have to run away from Nigeria when the military was hunting them. The obi your messiah never struggle for democracy. He was busy selling Gala .

Two years already spent. Another five years for transition. Thereafter he can run in the elections to be supervised by himself, using the army and some gullible citizens. He recently increased salaries as a show of his “sincerity” and was applauded by the people.

The young man has already shown himself as a student of despotic African leaders. He has shown his ability to be the President for life. He has shown his intention to be reckoned among the sit tight leaders.

Africans need to wake up and demand proper leadership. Africans should no longer surrender their lives to such horrible leaders, whose only plan is to loot, kill and destroy.
The issue is this is exactly the masses think too. They think from a scarce mentality other than being solution providers
