The Govt have not confirmed it.......They only told the Danish troops to leave the Country ASAP

(It was released on the day of the Burkina coup). However, Malians are agitating France should leave as well. Russia is the new bride.

This is the document.

wow!! Interesting

Looks like a typical military Jackboot response. Reminds me of the time of Late Gen. Abacha. He lost las las. If the Mali Junta did it, they will lose las las. You can't finish any meal the whole community serves you.

Nation with men with balls.

Unlike our own military men known only to flex muscle on their own bloody civilians

Now I understand why Buhari and Jonathan want to stifle the government in Bamako. These young men are tired of being raped nonstop by France. This has gone on for over 500 years. France has been looting Africa nonstop. For all the stolen wealth from Africa, there is no single success story of French intervention in the whole of West Africa. From Cotedevoir to Burkina Faso to Togo to Guinea to Mali to Cameroon to Central Africa republic. It's all the same story; France imposing backwards leadership on the people through evil coups and then going ahead to use those leadership to loot these countries. France would have been a dead power by now without the looting going on in Africa. How many serious African heads of states that have been assassinated as a result? Lumumba, Sankara etc..

Very demoralizing to see what Jonathan and Buhari are doing. The whole West African governments actually imposed sanctions on Mali. Buhari spearheaded this. At every turn in Nigeria, we are saddled with governments that fights for neocolonial interests. France involvement in West Africa has inhibited Nigerias ability to influence policies across the regions as a regional power. It has effected ECOWAS efforts at regional integration. It has stopped the moves towards monetary union. Inspite of her lofty ideas, trade integration is basically nonexistent as France uses her proxy leaders here to work against this. So you will expect Nigeria to see this as an opportunity to come in and effect things based on Nigerias interests.., But Buhari and his goons are busy trying to force the Malian junta to go back to the status quo! Big shame..

APC.
This is the year of infrastructure... We will commission Second Niger Bridge, Lagos-Ibadan expressway, we will finish Ajaokuta-Kano gas pipeline, we will commission Lekki deep sea port and Badagry port... We will use projects to choke PDP this year.

O set go.

Almost all the countries French colonized in Africa are still living in abject poverty.

That's the Military for you!

However, the masses are urging them on. France is pressuring ECOWAS that has dealt heavy sanctions on the Country.

This is the type of news you get at yeyenews.com

A democracy that does not guarantee security of life and property.

The end justifies the means. It about time Africans write their own history.

If True, this people get liver die.
If successful, this is a big trouble for France.

Photoshop!
That doc has been out there for like 4 or 5 days and they haven't confirmed it till now.

The Mali Govt hasn't owned up to it.

Democracy is a tool by poor western states of France, Britain, Germany, Italy etc to install their choice leaders in Africa so they can continue to leech off the continent. Why hasnt previous "democratic" Governments in Mali and the sahel taken these important steps of ending use of foreign colonial language (French).

They should be ready for a coup

There are better ways things can be done

3exe3:




With time it will get to Nigeria too

This year and next year will define Nigerias future..

Kabongo1:

They should be ready for a coup

Or even an assassination...

Or even an assassination...

Already attempted: https://amp.dw.com/en/mali-says-president-assimi-goita-survives-assassination-attempt/a-58376438

Same attempt on Madagascar president by a French suspect...

It's high time Africans join hands and drive put these French savages from Africa. Worst part is Africans don't believe we are as advanced as them. We hv to fix our minds too.

Not when French savagery is allegedly in full force:

After reasoning this issue so well it remains a mystery that you are unable to recognise that IPOB another neo-colonialist sponsored terror group to destabilise Nigeria in particular and Africa in general.
