Hahahahahaha Burkina what? You mean Burkina I travelled to w weeks ago and from there to Gambia and I just returned few days ago you are talking about?

Why not you relocate to that your Burkina make we hear your success story?

Listen: I purposely travelled via Burkna again on my way to Gambia just to see and witness the online noise infact Abia State is better than Burkina go there and see for yourself that is all I can say.

Hian. Noise noise noise and noise. Go to Burkina and see it you go melt. You don't value what you have till you loose it. Yeye.
No evidence suggest you traveled to Burkina Faso and later Gàmbia. Absolutely no evidence. Anybody can type what you typed up there.

But west Africa appears to be the most unstable region in Africa in terms of insecurity, bad governance and coup d'etat
Would you rather focus on your country?

Military governments aren't encouraged or accepted by most people. But after overcosting billions to run elections, yet heartless politicians continue to torment the common people devastatingly too. African politicians have more wicked hearts than the African soldiers. So if the wicked politicians inconsiderations call for kaki BOYS, so very well be it.

Which Burkina Faso? Una go just dey cap wetin no make sense. Why don't you leave Nigeria and relocate to Burkina Faso.

Those ibos advocating for a military take over in Nigeria, should first start with their five south east states. Let them remove their Governors : Alex Otti, Hope Uzodinma, Charles Soludo etc, and then appoint Hausa officers as states administrators. Let's start from their first
If military take over Nigeria,una life don finish because many *** don dey inside NA.
I pity una wey dey pray for military take over.

Military government would have been a solution if they weren't always more corrupt than the civilian government.
Legacy will always remember Abacha and his family's claims about how much they took out of Nigeria
But I understand things were cheaper.and the economy was strong during Abacha regime

You will get what you’re looking for don’t worry. Oluyede will take over and he will rule with iron hand for the next ten years. He will appoint Yoruba and Fulanis as military administrators to rule all of the five south eastern states. He will also ensure Nnamdi Kanu rots in Sokoto prison.

This infection is spreading fast. Let it not reach Nigeria. The only thing that can possibly be worse than an APC government is military rule. We don't want it in our country! Let us protect what we have no matter how Clueless and incompetent they are, it is still better than a military dictatorship.

· The November 2025 constitution has been suspended.
· All institutions have been dissolved.
· Political parties' activities have been suspended until further notice.

What is wrong with some Yorubas? You can't make a complete sentence in a day without mentioning Igbos. What is wrong with you and your generation?

Where have you seen Igbos calling for military coup in Nigeria? The coup plotters arrested by Tinubu government did you see any Igbo in the list? Why are you people so afraid of Northerners that you can't face them but always dragging Igbo into your stupidity? Shame on you!

Donald Trump would rather spread hatred and act like a useless 15th century tyrant than promote democracy in his so called shit hole African countries therefore, allowing North Korea and Russia to change the dynamics of West African politics in the foreseeable future. Shame on the present crop of politicians in the US both Democrats and Republicans. Shame on all the people who voted a village idiot. George Walker Bush is a Republican yet he seriously promoted democracy in Africa. Same with Clinton and Obama. Biden tried his best also until this low intelligent convicted felon became president.
West Africa is fast becoming the world's hottest "Ring of Coups" and the security situation will get worse for sure. Maybe these Africans are seeing the packaged fraud called democracy as an instrument of western exploitation. I'm sure that Ecowas and the AU won't lift a finger. Benin Republic fall to the hands of guys who should be in the barracks and borders to protect Ecowas which translates to more freedom for the jihadists. We haven't seen any improvement in the security situation of Niger, Mali and Burkina Faso and I'm sure things will get worse in Porto Novo and Cotonou from now.
For those illeterates saying Burkina Faso is the newly developed country in Africa, why don't you relocate your entire family there and discover that real life is not the same as military propaganda. Shior!! As for the politicians looting the countries dry, carry go now. Dem no dey tell pesin but remember that not all coups are peaceful oh.
How did Obama promote democracy in Africa 🌍?
His actions in Libya led to the destruction of that country and Africa is still paying for it till date.

His interference in the 2015 Nigerian election by using insecurity to rig GEJ out of power (okpebolo of Edo state just confirmed that) to usher in APC, Nigerians are still paying for the negative consequences till date.

So what are you talking about? 🤔

Democracy is Never An African Way of Governance, Africans Needs Some Strict Level of Force To Achieve Certain Developmental Results , Our Level of Resistance is Different From The White People, Africa Democratic Government Are Extremely Corrupt, African Need Iron Hand to move Forward. Congratulations to The People of Benin Republic on Your Liberation.

True democracy is not really practiced in African countries. African leaders doesn't even understand what is democracy at all. Overthrowing many of them is the best
The UK is now on it's sixth prime minister since 2016. Rough math 1.5 years each collectively.

You're worried about Cameroon when it's more stable than your own country.
Hypothetical lot.

Coups are only happening in franco-phone countries.

A direct revolt against french neo-colonialism.


Can't happen again in Nigeria or that will be the end of this entity.
