Zege7716: Just like Tinubu is still holding down Lagos and is supported by you and your brothers. Democracy can’t work..bla bla bla. So why couldn’t BVAS work? Maybe same reason why democracy can’t work or technical glitches abi? Deceive yourself. If visas are placed before you, you’ll pick democratic systems to spend holidays or work, than totalitarian systems. Isn’t that stupidity? Cho Cho Cho…,Democracy is not for Africa yet the day Sanni Abacha died, a huge part of the country was jubiliating. Now I ask you fools who know your history like retarded Ramaphosa of SA, was Abacha regime a democratic one? Your fore fathers who sold their brothers to the Europeans, were they practicing democracy? What works in Europe can’t work in Africa because of weather conditions; yes the weather of the mind. If una like change to monarchy or military system of governance, you will never get a different result. Instead you get worse. Only idiots believe otherwise. You select stupid leaders from stupid mindsets and cry about democracy failing. Ask your fathers how they fared under military rule. Same people championing endsars are the same lots applauding the military juntas. Confused lots everywhere. When you should be calling for absolute human reforms and reorientation you’re calling for change from Democracy. Since NEPA changed its name and got privatized by different DISCOs have you recorded a steady one month supply without interruption? ACN merged with another stupid party and produced APC, which later absorbed thieves who defected from PDP. Now do you still see any difference? Look at your brothers who leave the country, a good number of them have soiled the name of the country, making it difficult for the few sincere ones to connect effectively for global opportunities. Maybe you’ll blame that too on democracy or poverty caused by democracy. I’ll be glad at this time to be proven wrong that your education wasn’t a waste of time and resources. Idiots everywhere. |

jonahhh: That's a human flaw. That's how leaders and people in general always are - they want independence, even when another person with experience and track record can do a better job. Imagine if resource-rich but poor mismanaged countries let well-organised countries come in and manage them. The world would be richer and better organized |

Irony1: Boy, call the Sun a moon if you desire, it doesn’t change what it is. Abacha looted Nigeria till the heavens quaked. What’s wrong is wrong. Don’t confuse yourself with semantics. Abacha been balance thief correct thief. Please were you born already when Abacha ruled Nigeria? And if yes, then I’ll like you to mention just one politician that has looted the country more than Sanni Abacha, with two instances of proofs. Tankio. |

Irony1: If civilians were not power drunk military will have no business in politics. Are you aware that in Nigeria’s history, it was a case of junta overthrowing junta than civilian? Go back and read…and be less loud next time on contexts you can barely absorb. |

masseratti:You know nothing old man. Citing we now have the luxury of cell phones and internet, tell the country that doesn't have such basic amenities, it's not as if we have it in abundance, Tariff plans are very expensive now. Our Fathers enjoyed whatever was trending during their time, young men of 25 got married easily but now even 35 years is still having financial doubts. I don't blame you though, everything must be going so well for you. |

Irony1: Do you know that south Korea is what it is because of Military rule Boy you’re a nuisance here. Stop spewing rubbish. Ask questions where you don’t understand anything. Korea after WWII was divided into north and south just like Germany was(east and west), between democratic US and a communist Soviet Union. Even though SK have experienced transition of power and few juntas in that space of time, what accounts for her huge development is the US influence. She prospered from engagement and ties with liberal Systems, not military rule. Read and comprehend. Don’t be an idiot. |

Abagworo: Nigeria was safer and Dele Giwa was served a letter bomb for paying the price of true journalism Ken Saro Wiwa got hanged for speaking up for his people. How about Kudirat Abiola? If you were born at these times like you claimed, listen to yourself and ask yourself if you learn from mistakes. |

The disputed election results were announced yesterday in the middle of the night on state television without prior notice. This sounds familiar. |

Ihengwu:Be more apt. Put it this way- Africans are ruining Africa. Why? Because the politicians, the military and a good number of the citizens are made of the same stuff and mindsets. What was the difference between Obasanjo in Khaki and Obasanjo in agbada? What was the difference between Buhari in khaki and Buhari in agbada? What’s the difference between a regular Gboy and Stella Odua? What’s the difference between the POS guys who used cash drought to wreak havoc on their neighbors and the local government chairman who hoarded palliatives during COVID lockdown? Why are Nigerians barred from a good number of global opportunities, accessible by average countries, is it the government or the people? The military man that beats up civilians for self satisfaction, what’s the difference between him and the regular agbero who harasses people on a daily? What’s the difference between the police who extorts drivers and the agberos who do same? The list is endless. Whatever we become is a product of how we think. Period.

StrongAlphMale: Why? Oyinbos had their own coups: USA, France, Germany, Russia, all had their own coups (er, sorry, revolutions)... But on a serious note... the guy had overstayed his welcome.... wonder who's next? As a child of 80's it was normal thing to hear: "I, so and so, declare that we have seized ..." Next thing will be a "transition to civilian rule", ideally with the plotters as front runners, followed by a campaign of increasing repression, then third term agenda, then mysterious death or assistance of a western power. I used to think this continent would improve, but as I'm heading towards 50, I realize that "plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose", and this stuff ceases to bother me. Even if Africa is recolonized for 100 more years, it will still decay. |
Re: Military seizes power in Gabon by infofta(m): 6:14pm On Aug 30, 2023 |
Wike rigged election for Tinubu in River state and was rewarded with Minister of Abuja. We know what ElRufai and his colleagues did in the North. Why are we tolerating this in Nigeria. How did we get here? The next protest in Nigeria will be in front of Defense headquarter and all military barracks across the country. All these few recycled politicians recolonizing Nigerians economically must end. Enough is enough. 1 Like |

Connected1:your opinion my brother.. I bet you never heard Fela songs in the 80s complaining about economic conditions in the country getting worse... Or this Yoruba musicians singing ìlú lè kó sọ wo lóde ọmọ de ń kí gbé àgbà kín gbé ka lu kú lon kí gbé owó. That song came out around early 80s if your father was enjoying then why were the people complaining country was hard way back then... My brother don't live in fools paradise. Nigeria has been on a decline per living conditions economically since 1960...thats my point.. It was never good talk less of better before. |
