That old man in Nigeria next in line to be uprooted. Let him know the seat he occupies does not belongs to him and he is treading on shattered waters. We know it was the west who appointed him but tell him not to get comfortable in that chair. His end will be worst.

The issue is just like they did in Libya, they won't openly do any confrontation, they'll just be parachuting weapons drops to citizens to further destabilize the region some more

Good bye, France.

Enough of Colonialism. France practice what you preach "Respect country Sovereignty". Stop saying democratic elected when it was clearly fund by outsider & install.

What was the purpose of the coup? To protect the position of the leader of the Presidential Guard. More like ancient Imperial Rome where the Praetorian Guard regularly overthrew Emperors.

That's not what the new Generalissimo said. He claimed it was because the President was not fighting Jihadists effectively.

Mali and Burkina Faso have made it clear: 1. If attacks take place they are out of ecowas. 2 it will be a declaration of war. They did not see this coming. Now they want to wait? Why? One week is one week.
Being objective what benefit has the French brought to the sahel region and all its still meddled territories, asks the African 🌍❓ NADA okey so keep it moving, the whole region has filled for divorce from what is an abusive relationship ✌🏾🤲🏾🙏🏾☝🏾✊🏾💯
Byeee byeee 😂😂😂
ecoWAS
If anyone knows the antcient maps of songai ,Gana and mali empire and see this three countries coming together once again , u will really know this is the work of God and something great is coming. By peace or by calamity . This is the happiest thing in my whole life. I have always looked at the map and thinking of this move. This region is were one of the most powerful antcient kingdom was. May God guide us through the redeeming journey.

No. It's smart
The youth of Africa will determine if it is wise to let the sanctions work or not.
Yes!! ECOWAS should wait in order to prevent the malicious & destabilisation of the region of West Africa by France and NATO. Also, ECOWAS will be conscious of the welfare and protection of civilians.

@bmswisdom9824 ECOWAS can't wait and should not wait. A military action would force the junta to escape immediately. Niger, Mali and Burkina Faso would not fight Ecowas. They have no capacity to fight Ecowas, also these countries are fractured into tribes. What you not seeing is that these coups are tribal struggle for domination and control of resources. Other tribes in those countries are never going to join the tribe of the coup leader to fight. One thing I can guarantee you is that if Ecowas initiate a military action, the coup plotters would escape in few days.
