What bothers me is I don’t know why Tinubu is very much afraid of coups in other countries – Major General Ishola Williams (Retd.)

According to a news that was published by the Punch paper online this morning, it was reported that the former Chief of Army tions, Training and Plans, Major General Ishola Williams (retd.), has said that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, must be careful not to be caught in the web of the current crisis in Niger Republic, which was beyond a coup, as he urged the President to concentrate more on Nigerians, and mediate diplomatically in Niger instead of using force.

While Williams was talking, he stated today is the last day given to the Nigerien military junta, by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the ECOWAS community to surrender power.

He said , “What bothers me is, I don’t know why Tinubu is very much afraid of coups in other countries. He should be concerned about his own country, to make sure that coups do not happen in Nigeria. This is because charity begins at home. So, even though he is the chairman of ECOWAS, there is a limit to what he can do.”

He claimed that this is because, the ECOWAS Community is not yet a political federation, and ECOWAS is a membership of sovereign states in Africa, and these states can decide on what they want to do with their countries without the interference of other countries.
