For me I don't understand the double standard associated with the Niger coup. Similar thing happened in Mali and Bokina Faso yet there were no Military intervention from anyone. Why will they send Military to Niger? Coup was done by Niger military against their president and the coup enjoyed the support of the citizens... this shows it is an internal politics that does not require meddling by any external forces.

This is the exact point that the western African leaders in ECOWAS are neglecting which is very crucial before they decide to go for military intervention. The citizens are happy about the coup, why will they worry themselves again. Who are they fighting for? The citizens they’ll want to fight for are okay with the military government and this war will look like the ECOWAS is fighting against the Nigerien people all. Military intervention is not needed.

What I see with this ECOWAS and other African leaders is dancing to the tune of the West. Most of the corrupt African leaders wear rigged into office by the West, who prefer the worst of us to lead us. So, those leaders are just doing the biding of the West that depend on the Uranium of Niger for goo proportion of their nuclear power plants and ammunition.

We all know this is what the west wants and they can’t get it when the military government is in power. They won’t stop and will do everything possible to return the government to civilian rule.
