Re: USA Africa Dialogue Series - RE: Military -seizes-power-in-gabon-after-bongos-vict

CAO,
I am one of your silent admirers. I like your interpretations of events.
In this case, I beg to disagree with your response.
Some  leaders of so-called advanced democracies in Europe have been known to keep mistresses. In my view, such leaders are allowing prostitutes to occupy the spaces of their wives.
Yes, we divorce misbehaving wives. The people on Niger, Mali, Burkina Faso, and now Niger and a few yet to follow are in essence getting rid of their misbehaving leaders. Call it what you may, a coup is similar to a divorce without a dialogue.

I am offended whenever I hear the phrase 'civilized world' or the word primitivity.  If I see what the so-called civilization is doing to the world now, destroying the environment, implementing economic models that keep the Global South in perpetual poverty, amplify inequalities,  build Drones and bombs to destroy the same civilization,  I'll choose primitivity, I'm sorry.
If the current political situation is the best democracy can deliver African,  it ought to be reimagined. What's happening in the francafrique now is a reimagining of the inherited governance architecture. It could well end badly. But at least it is a trial.
The sad part is that the Anglophones still have their heads in the sand.

Edward,

Do we allow prostitutes to take over our conjugal spaces because our wives misbehave? 

We correct such wives or divorce and marry other wives if the misbehaving wives refuse to mend their bad ways.

By the way, those allegations of misbehaviours are still allegations and must be proved beyond all reasonable doubts. 

This is the burden civilization imposes on us, otherwise, it would be back to primitivity in which persons were burnt to death, their property distroyed on mere allegations.

-CAO.

It is Bongo now. I pray that these changes do not result in violence that will destroy the country. But the changes are welcome. African governments must know that 'democracy ' will not save them if they continue to convert their countries into failed states.

"GREETINGS ALL,

QUESTION: IS THE NIGERIAN PRESIDENT GOING TO FIGHT IN GABON TO BRING DEMOCRACY TO THE DEAD IN SUPPORT OF NATO?

KOFI"

Is Gabon a member of ECOWAS? Of course no.

Tinubu is doing what he is doing in Niger because that country is a member of ECOWAS and every ECOWAS member subscribed to the union's protocol against unconstitutional change of government and Tinubu happens to be the ECOWAS chair at this time.

-CAO.
