It is becoming increasingly clear that France is hell bent on coming to Nigeria as a FRIEND, by all means fair and foul. Deception is a game they excel in. But friends are supposed to be helpful not deceitful, and relationship between two parties is also supposed to be mutually beneficial, not helpful to one side but unhelpful to the other.
The relationship between Nigeria and France, which would allow the Western European country to ‘come to the military assistance’ of this nation, to maintain security, and freely mine any amount of mineral resources of its choice, is the type that will be beneficial to ONLY one side, which is FRANCE.
Revelations made by many people in the know, both local patriotic compatriots and foreigners, which are trending on the social media in video clips and statements, warned of and the imminent arrival of the French ‘Armed Forces’ into Nigeria, under an ‘agreement’ unknowingly entered for this country by President Tinubu and his counterpart, Macron of France.
A YouTube video clip, presently trending via WhatsApp, shows a painfully looking Chief of Defence Staff, General telling (to nobody within sight in the video) that the French soldiers would assist Nigeria to remove the landmines buried by the Boko Haram terrorists. With him were some white (believed to be French) soldiers, who were not the target of his brief speech.
The Nigerian side of the ‘agreement’ was allegedly signed by the Nigerian president’s ally and front, the Lebanese, Mr. Chougry, who lives in the capital of the Western European country, Paris.
The company of the Lebanese, Hitech, is the construction firm that was single handedly awarded by President Tinubu, the N15.6 trillion Lagos to Calabar Coastal Highway contract, and a part of the Abuja to Kano Road Project, hitherto handled by Julius Berger Nigeria Limited, but revoked by the federal government, earlier on.
These and the purchase of the president’s brand new official luxury airplane, brand new official luxury yacht (first time for any Nigerian leader),and a brand new super luxury Cadillac Escalade from the US, were all awarded without seeking the approval of, or even notifying, the National Assembly (NASS), which is Constitutionally mandated to give approval for such humongous presidential expenditures.
These and many more of the president’s unilateral decisions, actions and policies, are NOT, in any way, compatible with the practice of democracy. The doer of such, has open DICTATORIAL tendencies, or is a person possessed by some hidden spirits that are nothing but evil.
A Nigerian emerging fire brand politician, Major (rtd) Hamza Almustafa, alleged that France had given out $1 billion (US) to President Tinubu when he made the latest of his many inexplicable visits to France for the construction of a laboratory in one of the Military barracks in Nigeria. This country does not NEED a laboratory at this material time of hunger, poverty and terrorism in the land. The Nigerian leader lied to his people by saying that the French government gave the money for the construction of a so called learning centre, but was actually meant for the laboratory, meant for the manufacture of a deadly vaccine.
As a matter of fact, the poor Western European country, desperately needs every Franc in her account for use on the mainland. It sounds like the blind person pulling the stick of a one-eyed person. The question to be asked here is; who is more in need of being ‘pulled’?
According to Almustafa, “If the building of the laboratory had been finished before Covid 19 came to Nigeria, the deadly vaccine produced at that place (laboratory) would have been used in the Northern part of the country, which would mean the deliberate mass murder of uncountable number of people in other countries neighbouring the North”.
The Niger Republic Military Head of State, General AbdouRahamane Tchiani stated that, “France does not consider black people wise or sensible enough to print and spend their own money by themselves. They have to be helped by having the largest percentage of their money kept for them not in the local French banks, but those on the mainland.
The Niger strongman, who heads the National Council for the Safeguard of the Homeland (CSNP) Junta, added that, France was told to leave the country (Niger), as did Mali, Burkina Faso and other former colonies, because of her exploitative attitude, interference in the country’s internal affairs, and her heavy handedness it used on her former African colonies.
The three countries, Niger, Mali and Burkina Faso linked their recent decision to withdraw from the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), to the Nigerian President’s romance with France. They claimed that ECOWAS, which is headed by President Tinubu, would “Serve the Interests of France”, which happened to be their “Former colonial power”.
A one time President of France, Jacques Chirac, once told an interviewer that France owned the sum of $500 million (Half trillion dollars US) in the banks, paid (exhorted) annually by her former colonies as a ‘repayment’ for loans they allegedly obtained from France when they were under her colonial control. He said that,but for France’s African colonies, the country (France) would have been among the poorest in the world.
France is said to have the second biggest gold reserves in the world, after the United States, which she keeps tightly secured in Port Knox. The apparently impregnable Port Knox, is home to US’s large stock of gold reserves, and very confidential state documents.
It is to be noted that France does not have a single goldmine in the whole of the mainland, and all the gold she ‘possesses’ in her reserve were shifted (taken by force) from her (then) African colonies. The country was said to be barren of mineral resources in the mainland, hence the massive explosion of the former colonies.
France had never been a friend of Nigeria, nor did she wanted the country to be ‘ONE NIGERIA’, which was why it massively supported the rebel leader Odumegu Ojukwu during the 30 months Civil War in the this country. France is also alleged to be one of the major foreign powers sponsoring the ongoing, and destructive insecurity in the country.
The allegation of the country’s connivance and (often) active participation of insecurity in Nigeria comes from the confession of captured non state actors, who tell the security operatives that some white (mercenaries) actively participate with them. White pilots of helicopters were also alleged to be bringing sophisticated weapons to the terrorists, particularly the bandits in the North West states of Zamfara and Katsina.
France is further accused of importing into Nigeria the new terrorists, Lakurawa, from some North African nations noted for instability, with a view to destabilising the country further, so that her so called assistance may be requested by the Nigerian government. She is still alleged to be involved in the illegal mining of precious metals and stones in Zamfara and neighbouring states, as well as operating an illegal airport for transporting the mined products to the mainland and other Western countries for sale.
The billion dollar question begging to be asked is, ‘why should France enter Nigeria from behind the door, if she means well’? But because she has evil intentions for the country, she needs a Western proxy (agent) to sneak deceptively into the country at the time most of her former colonies have kicked her out of their countries, and more of the few remaining ones are readying themselves to do the same.
Why are the former African colonies kicking out their former colonial master if the relationship was mutually beneficial? France does not think that the black people could think and positively act for themselves without the ‘guidance’ (cheating) from the White people. The Western European country thinks even less so about Muslims, and her President, Emmanuel Macron, never hide his rabid hatred for Muslims and their religion.
Under his leadership, France passed a law banning Muslim women from wearing the Hijab (head and face cover), but allowing nuns to wear the Habit. Both the Hijab and the Habit serve the SAME functions of covering the head and face of the wearer from the ogling of leachers. How can such a country live dispassionately and peacefully in an environment that is predominantly Muslim dominated?
If the enemy is unwilling to leave quietly and politely, then they should be made to leave the country by all means possible, including forcefully. And Nigerian apologists who are not happy about it, are free to follow their EVIL ‘friends’ out of this country. Because, only their apologists, and lackeys of the present clueless, corrupt, dishonest and incompetent Tinubu regime can be friends with, and support the ill motivated foray into Nigeria.
May God, Who has the power to do as He deems fit, BREAK the unholy relationship between Nigeria and France.
