Niger/Aggression Plan: Divide and Conquer, The Fundamental French Principle Involved In The Niger Crisis

Patrice TALON’s Republic of Benin and General Abdourahamane Tchiani’s Republic of Niger share a border demarcated in colonial times by the French administration. These two West African countries share the same peoples, the same cultures and values, and in short the same interests.

Today, these two countries are ready to wage war against each other. They are on the verge of becoming enemies because of the same France that divided them in colonial times to better assert its political and economic supremacy. There is evidence to clearly accuse the Beninese authorities of aggression against their brothers in Niger, in the interests of their French allies.

In a press release issued on the evening of Tuesday 12 September 2023, the National Council for the Safeguard of the Homeland (CNSP) and the transitional government of Niger state with conviction that the Republic of Benin has «authorised the stationing of mercenary soldiers and war material, with a view to the aggression intended by France, in collaboration with certain ECOWAS countries»

Unless the Beninese authorities deny the allegations and clearly explain the role played by its mercenary soldiers and war materiel on the border with Niger. Otherwise, until there is proof to the contrary, we consider that Niger’s accusations against France are well and truly founded. The King of Africa, Emmanuel Macron, wants to attack Niger to free his collaborator Mohamed Bazoum, via Benin and other African countries.

Benin and Niger have signed a mutual assistance agreement to combat terrorist violence. This new behaviour by Benin, if true, calls into question the military agreement signed with Niger on 11 July 2022. This military agreement covers the exchange of intelligence, aerial assistance to track the movements of jihadists and joint operations between the Beninese and Nigerien armies.

In the face of these excesses, we are tempted to wonder what has happened to African values, embodied by love, fraternity, solidarity, hospitality, humanism and mutual aid?
