Burkina Faso,Mali & Guinea express solidarity w/ Niger🇳🇪 and warn that ANY military intervention against Niger is a DECLARATION OF WAR | Algeria joins

[Premeditated]

Some historians say Akans migrated down from the Sahel but they’re distinct from Mande

this seems the most logical

Why is the Nigerian president so thirsty for military intervention?

A military coup overthrew a democratically elected neighbor and may have more legitimacy to be reinstated.

No, it does not.

Russia is not capable of creating its own version of Francafrique.

The Niger coup, as the White House confirmed last week, doesn’t even have any links to Russia.

Americans in this thread, for some reason, see Russia and China everywhere. Perhaps due a long-standing cultural paranoia of Eurasia.

You should listen to Africans in this thread who are telling you what’s actually going on. Historically, we Africans should be wary of Americans like you. America always allies with enemies to Africa.

Now you’re denying Russia and China are even in Africa. Bold.

I was talking about the West as whole not France. France isn't calling any shots in the West. Russia's energy war has already failed....not the route Niger should go down when ultimately you will want to renegotiate with these same buyers.

They keep making points no one is defending!

The fact that Niger would go about this in a way that alienates your biggest exporter works both ways. Look at russias aviation industry supply chain after the Ukrainian invasion!

I wouldn't even call it that. Removing France is an objectively good thing. But the next step should be democracy, not continued military dictatorship. It should also revolve around securing resources, not bragging about fake resource information via (Russian) twitter bots while doing nothing.

Agreed

 

[Nkrumah Was Right]

Why is the Nigerian president so thirsty for military intervention?

Tinubu is very allergic to coups.

His corrupt political godfather, MKO Abiola, was putsch’d in 1993.

Tinubu is politically fragile. There’s a Supreme Court hearing on the validity of his stolen election and his other violations of the 1999 Nigerian Constitution. He’s also ill and fears further disclosure of his American heroin dealings in the 1990s.

The Nigerian military claims its apolitical but that’s a lie.

So NATO countries being involved with African resources doesn't reflect on NATO as a whole? The uranium and chocolate dont count?

EU cocoa imports have caused nearly 1 million hectares of deforestation in Ivory Coast

In the past 60 years, the Ivory Coast has lost 80% of its forests due to cocoa farming.

West Africa wants more of Europe’s chocolate pie

Growing and exporting cocoa beans may be big business but it’s low-margin and volatile. Moving up the value chain could be more profitable and stable.

France needs energy and maintains a firm physical posture on the continent. That’s different from Belgium which has no functional on the ground influence other than refinery of raw materials

Ebola Tinubu stole Nigeria’s election - particularly in Rivers State. Tragicomic!

“Stolen” elections > No elections

There’s also weak proof Tinubu really stole the election other than the general irregularities allegations

So he's scared that the coup trend will reach Nigeria and the Nigerian army will go back to its old ways?
