In fact, one of their supporters, on Facebook (when asked if they could not wait till 2019 to acquire power through the ballot box) said the coup was necessary so they could not wait since the nation will be on fire before then.

It was at that point I knew frustration had combined with the desperation which is the surest way to committing suicide!

For anyone to think of planning a coup in 21st century Nigeria, such a person must be far out of his mind.

As I write, in Africa, virtually, if not all political leaders are now democratically elected.

Since military takeovers are no longer celebrated in the continent, this convinces me that the era of military rulers is long gone.

Africa has joined the rest of the civilized world in adopting democracy. The world, Nigeria inclusive, has and continues, to condemn coups.

So whoever is planning a coup in Nigeria today may just be on a misadventure. It’s the surest way to committing suicide!
