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.

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.

Are the  bad governments running down their countries not  well known?
Are those mere allegations?
What is to be done when some of these govts cannot be changed through elections?
What of when they cannot be changed through elections, are problematic forms of govt and yet are putting in various degrees of effort to improve their nations?

Edward,

Thanks for appreciating me.

Have a look at the link below when you have time:

https://updatesonnews.substack.com/p/special-report-profile-of-the-new

From it you can now see the quality of leadership the Gabonese now have as a result of the coup.

By the way, the new leader is a cousin of the ousted President and had worked to sustain the father of the ousted President, who happened to be his uncle in power for decades.

There you have it(as Professor Bolaji Aluko would always say)

-CAO.

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.

There was no real democracy in gabon or equatorial guinea or congo brazzaville. That wasn’t true of niger. But the others are sham democracies. Rwanda too.
But i don’t see how the military coup will bring a better regime; i predict in all these cases the military will use their power to take over whatever economic forces they can, like egypt or zimbabwe.

ON THE DEFINITION OF DEMOCRACY AND HOW IT IS RELATED TO POLITICAL SYSTEM AND CULTURE.
AT THE BEGINNING OF AFRICA'S  DEMISE 1) THERE WAS THE IDEOLOGY OF EUROPEAN CIVILIZATION WHERE THEY BROUGHT CIVILIZATION TO THE DEAD AND SLAVERY TO THE LIVING
2) THEN CAME GOD, IN CONTINUAL DECEPTION, WHERE GOD WAS BROUGHT TO THE DEAD AND COLONIZATION WAS BROUGHT TO THE LIVING
3) NOW NATO'S DEMOCRACY ASSUMES ITS ULGLY HEAD TO BRING DEMOCRACY TO THE DEAD IN AFRICA AND AFRICAN  STUPIDITY IS AT THE FOREFRONT
 OF NATO'S DEFENSE

PLEASE CHECK THESE MONOGRAPHS ON DEMOCRACY OUT. PLEASE ADD OR TAKE. PLEASE DO NOT BE DISTRACTED WITHTH EXTENSIVE MATHEMATICAL THEORY OF VOTING AND COLLECTIVE DECISION-CHOICE THEORY UNDER A PREFERENCE ORDER. QUESTION:
ARE COLONIALISM, SLAVERY, NEOCOLONIALISM, POVERTY, SANCTIONS ELEMENTS OF DEMOCRACY??? HMMM!!!!!

Fuzziness, Democracy, Control and Collective Decision-Choice System: A Theory on Political Economy of Rent-Seeking and Profit-Harvesting

Description

This volume presents an analysis of the problems and solutions of the market mockery of the democratic collective decision-choice system with imperfect information structure composed of defective and deceptive structures using methods of fuzzy rationality.

The book is devoted to the political economy of rent-seeking, rent-protection and rent-harvesting to enhance profits under democratic collective decision-choice systems. The toolbox used in the monograph consists of methods of fuzzy decision, approximate reasoning, negotiation games and fuzzy mathematics. The monograph further discusses the rent-seeking phenomenon in the Schumpeterian and Marxian political economies where the rent-seeking activities transform the qualitative character of the general capitalism into oligarchic socialism and making the democratic collective decision-choice system as an ideology rather than social calculus for resolving conflicts in preferences in the collective decision-choice space without violence.

Let us not rush to judgement about these unfolding military coup d'etats. Let us be discerning. For instance, the coup that took place in Gabon a few days ago looks more like a palace coup (a new wine in the same old bottle?) than the sort of coup that occurred earlier on in the Republic of Niger. Not every coup is necessarily motivated by a desire for a transformational change, a desire for a decisive and a people-oriented, African-interest-motivated change. Notice, for instance, that in one of their opening statements, the coupists in Gabon asserted their determination to uphold international agreements. Was that an oblique reference to France's neo-colonial ties with its African colonies? Time will tell.

Another point to consider is that under normal circumstances, a military coup is not a people-oriented means of changing governments. A free people should not be governed through the barrel of the gun. Sovereignty lies with the people.

A military coup is an aberration often provoked by the rascality, the insensitivity, the greedy rabid corruption, the self-centeredness, the illegitimacy of the ruling civilian regime, the disregard of the rule of law by the ruling class, etc. Military officers are not trained to govern; they are trained to kill a designated enemy force in defense of a country’s territorial integrity.

Nigeria’s experience with military governance is a mixed bag that is nothing to write home about. History also shows that a good number of past military coups in Africa were externally sponsored by self-interested geopolitical powers.

In the final analysis, and all things being equal, an effective democracy that is based on the true will of the people, truly free and fair elections, the rule of law, institutionally-oriented governance focused upon meeting the needs of the people and advancing the social development and transformation of the nation, and guided by the fear of God, is the right way to go. And it is the ultimate key to the full development of the human potentials of African peoples.

I wouldn’t be surprised to hear that
France had a hand in the Gabon
coup,  as it did in the case
of Chad - to somewhat preempt
a takeover by anti-French interests.
As in the case of Ouattara’s
Côte d’Ivoire, there seems to be a narco
factor, too, somewhere  in the equation.
Some reports suggest that  Nguema 
of Gabon  paid about a million dollars in
cash for some real estate, not too
long ago.He has benefited from the
dynasty but perhaps did not want to be
upstaged by Ali Bongo’s son, the
heir apparent. 

The coups in Guinea, Mali, Burkina Faso
and Niger are indeed in a different
category. What binds them is the
jihadist  threat, the desire to
get rid of foreign troops, and strong
anti-French sentiments by the 
majority of the population. The more
Macron speaks, the greater the anger
generated by his paternalistic,
condescension, of course. His naive,
arrogant and  hostile interventions
continue to make the situation worse.
As for Bazoum, his  election was not
free and fair,  and it seems that his
predecessor cut a deal so that his
son would be the next president 
after Bazoum’s term ended. That
would be one of the annoyances
as well, so anointing Bazoum’s Niger
as  a  democracy is indeed
questionable. 

The “fear of God” criterion can
itself generate endless religious 
wars. Ask the jihadists.

GREETINGS ALL

PLEASE REFLECT ON THE STATEMENT BELOW

To the Western imperial system, a new ideological framework and the corresponding strategies had to be invented to create a new socioeconomic environment of imperial controls to stop the African forward march, interest and social vision. This required dealing with the constraining power of the USSR by containing it as part of the Cold War, as well as directing the African interest and social vision into the desert zone of  emptiness through indirect controls. In terms of the new imperial framework, Cheik Anta Diop summarizes it as:

The new tactic rather consists in trying to direct it, channel it towards nonsocialist forms, of the so-called Western type. If this goal were to be reached, the former colonial powers and the United States might stop worrying. Black Africa would be not Balkanized (for the political regimes of the Balkan countries are now relatively stable) but South Americanized. It would be made up of a proliferation of little dictator-ridden countries without organic ties one to another, ephemeral, affected with chronic weakness, governed by terror with the help of outsized police force, but under economic domination by foreign countries, pulling strings through the mere presence of an embassy….thus proving the emptiness of the so-called independence of such a state ]   [Diop, Cheikh A., Black Africa: The Economic and Cultural Base for a Federated State, Brooklyn, New York, Lawrence Hill, 1976.P15 ]     .

Looking at the current conditions of the decolonized African countries and the Afri-Western relations, this statement of Diop is prophetically instructive. The national independence of the African countries has simply faded into a mirage with an impenetrable fuzzy covering.
.
IT IS USEFUL TO NOTE THAT THERE ARE DIFFERENT FORMS OF OF DEMOCRACY. THE CAPITALIST DEMOCRACY IS AN INSTITUTIONAL ARRANGEMENT TO SOLICIT 
THE CONSENT OF THE PEOPLE IN SUPPORT OF THE POWER OF THE RICH TO FOOL THE PEOPLE THROUGH GOVERNANCE
WITHOUT THE PARTICIPATION OF THE PEOPLE IN THE ESSENTIAL SOCIAL DECISIONS EXCEPT THE TRIVIAL ONES 
WITHOUT VIOLENCE. HERE DEMOCRACY IS BY THE PEOPLE FOR THE RICH TO FOOL THE PEOPLE TO CREATE 
CAPITALISM FOR THE POOR AND SOCIALISM FOR THE RICH.

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.
