Nigeria: The New African Diplomatic Leader, At Expense Of South Africa by PaulJohn1: 10:29pm On Nov 15, 2012 |
In a sign that Nigeria is in and South Africa is out, the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) chose the Nigerian capital to announce their decision to send 3,000 troops to flush out terrorists from Northern Mali. With Nigeria contributing the largest Military contingency and leading a new diplomatic offensive, President Goodluck Jonathan signals a Nigerian comeback on the African scene.http://www.moroccoboard.com/viewpoint/68-hassan-massiki/5749-nigeria-the-new-african-diplomatic-leader-at-expense-of-south-africa |

http://www.moroccoboard.com/viewpoint/68-hassan-massiki/5749-nigeria-the-new-african-diplomatic-leader-at-expense-of-south-africa I think this moroccans are realizing the wave is changing it direction in Africa's politics, with all these glorification and attachment ...For now Nigeria seems to be winning all the campaigns. However, for Abuja to stay engaging, it needs to cultivate strong relations with key players such as Morocco. ...Moroccan diplomats should remind their Nigerian brothers that Tanzania and Zambia recognized the “independence” of Biafra in 1968. So?! |

What drugs you guys on. Why would they have held a Economic Community of West African States press briefing in. South Africa. Yes we supporting the opertion has a member of the AU but has this ECOWAS run operation it is only logical to base it out of Nigeria. Africa has not turned to nigeria for guidence. The mission is AU mission with ECOWAS has the lead group. And SA has ended civil wars in many countries something nigeria can not even achieve in it's own. People should stop talking out there ASS |

andrewza: From the write up ...After South Africa’s faux pas in Ivory Coast, Libya and Mali, Africans has turned to Abuja for guidance Nigeria successfully led African efforts that ended civil wars in Sierra Leon, Liberia and in Ivory Coast you even forgot how that of SA was brought to an halt by Nigeria. Check your history book. andrewza: Oh! And Nigeria just had it way to take the lead?! |
Re: Nigeria: The New African Diplomatic Leader, At Expense Of South Africa by andrewza: 10:35am On Nov 17, 2012 |

May be it's not correct, but it's not from a Nigerian site. http://www.moroccoboard.com/viewpoint/68-hassan-massiki/5749-nigeria-the-new-african-diplomatic-leader-at-expense-of-south-africa And how has these Affected Nigeria? They're all outside West Africa.

You should understand that Africa has turned to Nigeria as their Diplomatic leader. |

Paul John: May be it's not correct, but it's not from a Nigerian site. I don't know if ur just a lost soul or plain naïve. Every region on this continent has a country which leads in that area. Ethiopia and Kenya in the Horn and Central, Nigeria in West, Egypt and Tunisia in North, Angola and South Africa in southern africa what else do u expect. Morroco is not even part of the AU it rejected africa and considers itself a borderline euro nation and it wants EU membership. I bet ur morocco-bullsh*t site didn't tell u this To talk about SA and Nigerian rivalry asive its purely based on the involvement in other african nations affairs is total hogwash. Tell me who was responsible for brokering peace in South Sudan and Khartoum a few weeks ago. On the Mali issue SA offered logistical support, what else do u expect if we deploy our army in a region where other african states already have capable forces to engage those rebels we will be accused again of having a big brother syndrome. South Africa's history of involving itself in other sovereign states is also another reason why SA is very cautious in involving itself militarily on the continent without a UN mandate and that's a fact. There are foolish CRETINS like u on this form who continue to push this socalled Nigerian-South African fight for africa's leading nation. Of course in future Nigeria by its economic and population size it should be one of Africa's most influential states and should take the forefront in african politics especially in the West African region and this goes likewise for South Africa. Stop this bullsh*t of pitting us against each other this is one of reasons why africa is in its current state of outdated nationalism, tribalism, class-elitisism,racist politics and religious intollerence. Fool u are just another Maggot on its way to out. 1 Like |
