It was really funny to read that some Nigerians condemned the military putsch in Niger Republic as illegimate and an invasion of the democratic process. They forgot that their own government is worse than a military coup. It is high time Africans began to see Coups as necessary interventions in African democracy, where democratic norms are lacking and corruption so high. It is the only change mechanism in system of government that offers relief and hope in state of hopelessness. The military regime is better than a democracy where peoples’ wishes do not count or matter; where a winner takes all; where rule of law is in abeyance; where poverty is consciously mined to perpetually extract loyalty from the helpless. I support the revolution and recommend Diarchy for African states as the best form
