So you expect Nigeria to just accept it? You must be dreaming. Nigerria is West Africa, no Nigeria, no West Africa. We closed our boarders and all West African countries are crying and weeping. So, we take the shoots and as the Chairman, we speak last. If we Nigeria do not accept it, ECOWAS will have no other choice than to also rescind its decision, else we will muzzle ECOWAS to death. And with Major General Muhammadu Buhari on the seat, Nigeria can kill the whole ECOWAS economically.

I see how people applaud you because sometimes idiots are the majorities and the nations suffer when they the idiots elect a president. Don’t you know that the only thing Nigerian have as advantage over this people has been strip off?
First Benin stop taken Light from Nigeria and generate 40MW which is even access for the entire nation plus another 2000MW green energy project going on there by German company through France.
Togo is not importing anything from Nigerian including light except crude.
Niger Republic is building dam to generate electricity that will be enough for them and also export to Benin, Togo and Bukinafaso if needs arise and France is behind it.
They only import crude oil from Nigeria on credit and Nigeria cannot stop selling to them on credit because we need cash to steal and save in abroad bank than managing what we have for betterments of Nigerians.
Now Ecobank serve as Ecowas bank and finance by Nigeria and with that Nigeria take largest share in anything Ecowas is doing both profit and lost, but as France will take over monetary sponsor of Ecowas through Eco by Eco central bank in Senegal by central bank of Senegal what will be Ecobank hope for West Africa?
Now Nigerian fail to secure it’s boarder and putting the blame to its neighbors countries and even forcing them to use their security system to help useless giant to secure her boarders.
Nigeria forgets that whatever they do to their frencecofon countries is equerry doing to France. When I saw Buhari boosting that he don’t have date to open the boarder I laugh because I know it will come to this. You’re forcing a country that report to France which is part of decision making in UN to bow to you, impossible.
I know that France will find a way to weak Nigeria economy and help his colonial people and this is beginning watch out if Buhari will not open the boarder before January 15 if only he saw what is about to happens to his economy. Even if he open the boarder is already late because some business agreements has already seal with other Ecowas countries including Ghana before accepting France offer, and part of the agreements is to save them from area they need Nigeria.
We brag for nothing, do you know why Frenc cofon Nation’s still use CAF because Franc manage 50% of their foreign reserve for them and is not easy to let go. Nigeria only hope to manipulate Ecowas state when they start managing eco for them and it has been an issue with Senegal for year which France was behind all that.
I predict that they will get Ghana and it happens, other country will soon join and by the time France secure crude supply agreement with either Russia or Oman to stable supply crude to Ecowas countries that use Eco, is will remain only Nigeria and Gambia, and this two nation will be suspend from Ecowas with one allegation or the other and Gambia will succumb and join them then they will suspend Nigeria indefinably. Boasting that without Nigeria no Ecowas is like Boosting that without all tribe belong to Nigeria that the tribes are dead. Divide Nigeria and see how comfortable people will live.

Mind you Ecowas Bank will be in Senegal as France has concluded all the plan and the printing will be in France as CFA even if Nigerian join they are just there as others not as mighty for nothing.

Now that Ghana has join count anything that Nigeria and Ghana have off because soon Ghana decision making will be France sorry this is beginning of Nigeria down fall because the wicked close boarder to punish himself.
Don’t hope that Nigeria can succeed without her neighbors may be we think we can be as Britain if they eventually out from European union but that will be capital joke for Nigeria to stand alone.

KenechukwuEdu:

before the institutionalisation of the European Union, countries of Europe were poor, war battered nation's. Economic integration would surely lead to an improvement on our economic lives as West Africans. The only problem with this move by Ivory Coast is that West Africa caan not be an appendage to France. Ghana is truly a FOOLISH NATION!

I'm not understanding. Does it mean the countries making up ECOWAS didn't vote on the adoption before the ECOWAS president or whoever was in charge, made a public declaration on it? This is quite silly.

And BTW Nigerias response is more mature - though both are still foolish responses, because it seems like it came as a shock to them.

If France wants to keep it's hegemony over French speaking African nations no wahala. Nigeria should treat the 36 states in Nigeria as individual countries. More State autonomy and rights and the states can grow their own economy, with the advantage of being able to trade amongst ourselves, I think even the GDP of the 3/4 of our states individually will be bigger than any of the french speaking countries.

We should really start looking at our states as individual countries and start operating as such. It will grow the economy, bring governance closer to the people and reduce all these north, south, tribal and religious tensions in Nigeria.

Just like the Indian & Chinese states or the Canadian Provinces.

Exactly. Nigerian youths shout with zero content in their dumb skulls.

They want Nigeria to jump on it because White France said so?

Before the Euro came the British pound was the strongest currency in that region so based on this they rejected the euro. How did that affect UK? It never affected her. They still remain stronger that the euro per strength of currency

Nigeria has the economy of west Africa in her pocket and this is our strength. None of the west African countries can rise above Nigeria even with the adoption of the eco.

Their economy would remain the same, their exports same, their GDP same. The chief beneficiary to this eco move would be France because they are the puppet masters and would continue leeching off west Africa through this new method of colonialism

What really happen is that france quickly adopt the currency throught his watch dogs who are francophone countries and the are many majorrity carry the vote Nigeria, Ghana and Liberia are the only anglophone among them thats is why Nigeria we never adopt the so call ECO currency because it still mean continuation of colonia master so far it has france backing

Nigeria never told ECOWAS that they are interested in a single currency up till this moment.
That has been going on for years now.
So won't they reply them that they will get back at them?!
Nigeria’s naira is often seen as the likely anchor currency for ECOWAS, due largely to country’s sheer economic size and political importance.
This role would be akin to the one played by the German deutsche mark in the period leading to the introduction of the euro.
Our Conclusion : The Eco will clearly not be the panacea for West Africa’s myriad problems, including high levels of unemployment, especially among the burgeoning population of youth and the increasing numbers of the poor.
The lessons from the eurozone highlight continuing challenges among a group of highly developed countries with very strong institutions.
ECOWAS will do well to heed these lessons.
Also, efforts by member states to strengthen domestic macroeconomic frameworks are important.
Concerted efforts must be made to reduce the inordinate bureaucratic delays that severely constrain exports and imports at the border.
Launching the single regional currency, the “Eco,” by December 2019 is, at best, an expensive distraction that the people of West Africa can ill afford at this particular moment.
We stand with Nigeria.
Shame on the OP that brought this rubbish here, whatever his mission was and bigger shame on the illiterates typing jargons everywhere.

It is always good and refreshing to know that we still have reasonable and intelligent people like you guys on this forum.

It’s just tiring when people like u who know nothing will be parroting any nonsense told to u by people whose lifestyle of squander has been cut short by this govt ! Same people d govt is fighting for will be hailing people who prefer a system where corruption and lack of productivity is the norm! Nigeria is d largest market in west Africa - all these countries will be looking to enter our market and dump all sorts - so trying to protect our market for our people and move ahead with adopting the “eco” with the best interests of Nigerians is now a problem ? The govt should just open the Nigerian economy like that ? And it’s same people like you that will still be shouting no jobs! Get a grasp on issues before you start criticizing just because u have data.
