You said that ...."political power is not going to be served in a restaurant. They don't serve it a la carter, at all cost, fight for it, grab it & run with it". Is that the type of democracy you want to install in niger Republic? Spits! 143 Likes 21 Shares |

They are closing airspace ECOWAS had placed a blockade on since last week. Truly, things have changed in Africa. If it's before, the coupists will not be this jittery and scared. Even the head of the coupists had been holed up and away from the public out of fear of a counter coup while the legitimate President he overthrew is not perturbed. Niger will be alright las lad. Ecowas will not go to war with Niger, Niger is bigger than a few handful of coupists. Check my signature for free stuffs! 95 Likes 12 Shares |

The war against Niger Republic will be swift. Their ragtag army is already ill-equipped and in addition to sanctions, The Americans and French will be assisting ECOWAS troops with intelligence and weapons to quickly overrun the junta. 50 Likes 6 Shares |

Within a week, Niger juntas are brought to there knees. Ecowas is invading and no going back. In war situations like this, real leaders don't listen to cheap emotional citizens saying we don't need war. Ecowas leaving the coupist to remain in power is more dangerous than ousting them. 72 Likes 7 Shares |

Smh how I wish Africans can think deeply.yoruba will say we always know the beginning of a war and not how long or how destructive it'll be. You need to listen to bobmarleys song on war as well as lucky dubes song.i suspect the western powers/ cabals are behind this military invasion.yes I understand African civilian leaders have been very unreasonable, stupid and selfish but military no send human rights o.nothing like constitution with military (I'm talking to the indomie generation that think everything is a joke) them no go send your right.they only follow decrees and edicts. The military impunity too can be likened to when the obas,ezes and emirs had absolute power to do whatever they like.take your wife and if you dare complain, they'll kill you, nothing like expressing your views in Military regime.all the human rights activists (Ken saro wiwa comes to mind) was executed in the most tragic way.this one that you abuse politicians and drag them on social media (even though they deserve it) you cannot drag the military like that on social media o 66 Likes 7 Shares |

This war nor concern us one bit Never start what you cannot finish Who would bear the brunt of wars It's innocent people who are manage to survive Nigeria should let all mean carry their pot of sh*t by these. When we have our own problems who dey send us This is the stats as it stands Tilibu would want to show the west that he has big balls and not a toothless bulldog like he rightly said. The west would remind him that if he doesn't play ball, he cannot recharge battery in France again and may rattle his govt. Russia would not want anything to affect their Gas monopoly so that the west can bend to their knees. Moreover Russia has military hardware to sell to both sides the west cannot let their citizens freeze , US cannot let their investment in the Gas pipeline dissappear, France needs that uranium from Nigeria Omo, things don red 9 Likes |

Close the air space or leave it open, the question is, how long will the current military rule last! Let all align with history and codes of what they supporting. It is an open fact that, a coup will alway follow a coup! So whatever it’s been celebrated today, must be celebrated afterwards. If we should reckon with history, what’s playing out today played out in Burkina Faso. People who know history can attest about what later played out. We lost the great Thomas Sankara, who was killed from “WITHIN” 7 Likes 1 Share |

So Nigerian witches and Wizard traveling to Italy and Lybia will now follow Chad Niger coup plotters are not even ready to back out. One thing for sure is that once they get Russian Wagner support, US will back out, followed by UK, then France, then AU, follower by ECOWAS and Tinubu will never say or do pim about the coup again. Us in his wisdom will try to push Tinubu to go fight Niger so that they can sale weapon to both Nigeria and Niger so as to make money. By the way, Tinubu must not send any troop to Niger cos we know how Nigerian milliary behave aggressively to Nigerian citizens they are meant to protect, only God know how they will brutally treat Niger citizens. In as much as I don't like coup, the issue should be handled diplomatically and not by use of force. Northerners will even see any Tinubu fight against Niger as a fight against northerners. 14 Likes 3 Shares |

This is the situation. Nigeria is poised to start the supply of Gas to Europe, who will pay billions in $$$ for this favour. Russia, who just cut off their Gas supply to Europe would do everything to thwat Europe's plan to get Gas from Nigeria by gaining control over countries along the path of the Gas pipeline from Warri Nigeria, supplying Europe. Niger is the perfect country for Russia to distabilize in order to jeopardize the Gas project. For Russia, its pay back. For Nato, its survival. Winter is coming and Europe will need Nigerian Gas to power their heat systems. For Tinubu, its about making billions from the Gas deal, anything that would stand in the way of this deal, Tinubu will destroy. All of these will come at the expense of the lives and properties in Northern Nigeria. So expect a war in the scale of the Russia and Ukraine war in that region. if the war starts and is sustained for months, don't be suprised if the Gas terminal at Warri is bombed by Russian Drones. When this war begins, it will be difficult to stop....Now is the time to stop it by all means. But my thought is that the powers behind Tinubu are so strong, he cannot call the shots, he cannot stop the war even if he wants to. Europe will freeze to death during the winter if they don't get the Gas from Nigeria. When lives in Europe are threatened, NATO will flex its muscles...i just hope Nukes will not be deployed...God abeg na your hand we dey. 12 Likes 1 Share
