Benin And Togo Punished After Open ECOWAS Border To Niger
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 янв 2024
- Sanctions imposed on Niger by West Africa, ECOWAS, have badly hit Benin's economy. Togo, another Ecowas member moves to strengthen diplomatic ties with military led Niger. What are Ecowas leaders making of these developments? That and more is what we look at in this video.
Benin President Patrice Talon in a recent move called for relations to be swiftly re-established between Benin and Ecowas sanctioned neighboring country Niger. In his annual address to the nation before parliament, Talon expressed the "wish to see relations between Benin, Niger and Burkina Faso quickly re-established".
Sanctions imposed on Niger by the West African regional bloc, ECOWAS, have led to the closure of the border with Niger and have badly hit Benin's economy. Benin has seen a fall in revenues after the transport of goods to Niger via its ports was halted. Goods for Niger represent 80 percent of the transit volume at the port of Cotonou.
In a bid to alleviate economic challenges, Benin recently lifted the suspension on the transit of imported goods destined for Niger through the port of Cotonou in a move that follows five months of sanctions on the coup-hit country. However this does not mean that the Ecowas measures are completely lifted according to the commercial and marketing director of the autonomous port of Cotonou, the measures only apply to the operations of the port of Cotonou Benin.
On the sideline, Benin and Niger Both are also concerned about a giant oil pipeline that will allow Niger to sell its crude on the international market for the first time, via the Benin port of Seme. The export of Niger crude through the nearly 2,000-kilometre-long (1,200-mile) oil pipeline is due to begin in January.
Niger's leaders say the investment in the pipeline has allowed the country to increase oil production to 110,000 barrels per day, with an official target to increase to 200,000 barrels per day by 2026. Benin, for its part, hopes transit duties will help offset customs revenue lost due to the Ecowas sanctions on Niger. Stakeholders closely watch the evolving dynamics between Benin and Niger, recognizing the broader implications for regional stability and economic cooperation.
Meanwhile a recent visit of Niger's military president, General Abdourahamane Tiani, sanctioned by ECOWAS, to Togo for discussions with President Gnassingbé has added a layer of complexity to the diplomatic landscape in West Africa. The meeting aimed to "deepen bilateral cooperation in the areas of common interest," and notable outcomes included the decision to establish a Togolese embassy in Niger and discussions surrounding the "Togo-Burkina Faso-Niger" transit and transport corridor. This corridor is crucial for facilitating the movement of goods and people, enhancing economic activities, and promoting regional integration. The willingness of Togo and Niger to engage in dialogue on such initiatives reflects a shared interest in bolstering regional infrastructure and connectivity. This move suggests a diplomatic pragmatism aimed at fostering collaboration and cooperation in the region.
Following these developments, Ecowas leading country Nigeria in a recent move applied a blanket suspension on all university certificates coming from both countries Benin and Togo into Nigeria. This is as the government reportedly pursues an investigation into the alleged degree racketeering from Benin. However critics argue that the extension of the suspension to Togo, without concrete evidence of a similar racketeering report, suggests a broader geopolitical motive. The timing of these actions, coinciding with Benin Republic's decision to lift Ecowas sanctions and open its borders to Niger, as well as Togo's relations with Niger, adds complexity to the situation.
Some observers contend that the blanket suspension could be a strategic move to exert pressure on both Benin and Togo for their diplomatic engagements with Niger, a country that had faced Ecowas sanctions. By targeting the academic sector, Nigeria might be sending a message that its response extends beyond the alleged degree of racketeering and is linked to broader regional diplomatic considerations.

Benin and Togo should leave ECOWAS and Join the Sahel alliance.
They'll never. They need Nigeria and Ghana partnership.
Let them brake ties with France first.
@@mightyb8614 Why? Do you think Ghana and Nigeria broke ties with US and Britain?
@@hugo-di6xm why would they need nigeria and Ghana lol ?
@@hugo-di6xmboth countries do not need Nigeria. No offense , Nigeria is in serious shambles and is not ready to help any country.
South Africa is watching you ECOWAS. You will be next in the ICJ
It will be wonderful if South Africa can bring ECOWAS, its Chair Bola Tinubu, and Nigeria before the ICJ. There are grounds for this under international law and customary international law. That should send some messages to Bola Tinubu’s head. Do not forget to link in his so-called obtained certificate from Chicago College, US. for someone questioning the college certificates of foreign countries. It is in the international news. What nonsense.
Rubbish and nonsence talk ...😮😮😮
For African affairs should be an African court.
Otherwise... Justice will hardly be served, Tinubu is on
payroll of global imperialists from USA and EU.
South Africa you should worry about the Caucasians there who still have lands who belong to South Africans. And you have a group of Caucasians there who want South Africa to be divided=apartheid. So before "solving" others issues, fix yours.
You might be delusional trying to pretend everything is ok there but we know the reality of South Africa and your puppet European employee boy, Ramaphosa.
@@kojobriceamoussouvi683Nonsense talk as you are one of those that the West think it is better to continue fooling in Africa for perpetual slavery and looting than for Africas to convince in anything.
Slava Mali
Slava Burkina Faso
Slava Niger
Slava AES
Smart move by Benin and Togo, by putting their national interest first before regional interest
This Actions means these countries needs to unite ❤ Yess you will overcome I'm praying for your Success ❤ Please, stay strong and connections. I Salut each one of you. Stay focused prayed up and keep God in the for from. Don't fail for this Divide and Conquer ❤ The people are with you ❤
They will never lose when they stick and help each other! In fact they will win in the long run! They have not showed anything that make ecowas to be this harsh! In history you always want to be in the right side!
ECOWAS reminds me of the cooperation between the slave traders and the local chiefs of Africa.
Finally AFRICAN LEADERS are Understanding they NEED EACH OTHER so PEACEFUL NEIGHBORS = PROSPERITY FOR ALL!!!
This should be an example where the harder they try to put you apart the closer you become.
RIGHT ON TOGO! WITH THE HELP OF GOD! TOGO, AFRICA, AND AFRICANS WILL BE FREE‼️
This is what Africa is all about: One Africa, one people, one power, one goal AFRICAN UNITY. AFRICA MUST UNITE NOW..
Since when Nigeria is an example of integrity? The audacity.
In my opinion Niger, Burkina and Mali should leave Ecowas. We know Nigeria president is a slave of Europe and USA. This countries deserve peace and stability.
And They just left 😂😂😂,
It’s time for ONE AFRICA now once and for all. SYNERGY is irresistible yet LIFE POSITIVE..! United States of Africa is essential..! 🙏✌️♥️🙏😃 Mali Burkina Faso and Niger are brilliant examples of Strength and Integrity. ⚡️🙏
I am afraid in the interest of all African countries to be taken into consideration in decision making I do not see for now how African should be constituted as "ONE AFRICA" State for many serious reasons that should be carefully considered before pushing harder this proposition. For example, 1). Look and consider Bola Tinubu President of Nigeria and Chair of ECOWAS just did, disregarding and cancelling all education credentials of Benin and all because they disagreed to go along with him further on his punitive punishment against Niger and others. Do these two sovereign countries not have the right of their own agency to exercise in the interest of their own country? What other verifiable reason can Tinubu give to be believed to trespass into the education institution of another sovereign African country? Is he the Minister of Education of Nigeria . . .? 2). Nigeria under the presidency of Tinubu cut of supply of electricity to Niger, frozen their monetary account in the region simply because Niger boots out France and stopped the continued theft of its natural resources by France, 3). Consider the hash measures taken by ECOWAS against Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger because they kicked out France from further looting their countries and using their revenue and national wealth to strengthen France national economy, wealth, and prosperity at the expense of these three African countries leaving them in dare poverty and destitution. . .. And then you have ECOWAS chiefly Nigeria Bola Tinubu puppet of the collective West retaliating against them. I am sure you can produce more reasons.
Perhaps if you were going to confederate with honest not sleezy countries whose Heads of State are NOT career politicians and crooks then it may work but in particular with Nigeria included it is a recipe for disaster and misery. Mark well my considered view. I want to see Africa prosper get off the shackle of being seen as foreign aid seeking continent. Stop allowing the collective West insulting you, treating you as poverty case while looting your resources , forcing you to deposit about 80 percent of your national revenue into its foreign account [France] and then whenever you want part of the 80 percent ask you to put collateral. Which other continent is that done to but Africa. And then turn around said they are giving you foreign aid in 2024. Seriously. That is so insulting and disgraceful.
Wake up Africa. Use your electoral vote to elect non corrupted, non compromised and career politicians to office. These corrupted politicians are allowing the collective West to loot your country wealth for bribery.
This is how good neighbors show they can co-exist as brothers united. What are you waiting for ECOWAS? Your brothers are showing you the way to uniting and integrating with your brothers. ❤️😇🙌🏽
They should definitely get rid of Ecowas Benin is showing brotherly love ❤️ it warms my soulthank you Benin

Isn't eBola Tinubu one with the very same issue having to do with false university accreditation?
Nonsense,we are all brothers

Is Nigeria serious? After that US university scandal with the president of Nigeria?
Trash!!
Get our country Nigeria off your mouth, I understand that many of you Individuals generalize issue's nowadays, if you want to insult the evil leader's of Nigeria and Africa" you are so free to, curse them but keep our country Nigeria off your mouths and comments
In reality ECOWAS remain practically with 2 countries:
Ivory cost & Senegal.
It's rather Nigeria and Ghana.
They've planned to attack Niger from Nigeria border.
Not with 2ountries but 2 individuals Alasane and Mackysall
Stop fighting against your brothers and sisters, one African, brake down
The barreriers, time for a change,
Africa unite
They should leave ECOWAS and , Form their own Afrikan group together, Unite is strength to strength,!
South Africa! What is your move now? You showed your strength standing with Palestine, ability and skill at The Hague, it is time to stand with your brethren of Sahel Sir. Presidents Kagame, Ruto, Sage Museveni, make your stand, the rest of the silent majority it is time to stand for that UNITY. Citizens of Africa, man, woman and child, MAKE your silent leaders stand. AFRICA MUST UNITE NOW FOR HER COMMON GOOD. PEOPLE! YOU HAVE NO CHOICE. 😢

What about the report about the President of Nigeria/Ecowas having fraudulent degrees?!
Why why are Africans not speakers of our laug.....
Africans united.
Umssuka
Bola Tinubu needs to go. He should resign so that West Africans can unite. Tinubu is a big problem for Nigeria and Africa
What of Tinubu's certificates?
Benin needs a new leader, the one who can distance himself from from France so that the neighboring countries can trust its fellow country and come together for their own interests.
Which New leader ??? You don't know anything about Benin's politics
Le leader actuel le président TALON est ambitieux et a fait beaucoup pour le Bénin. Si il laisse la place à ses détracteurs s’en ai fini de tous le travail abattu par son gouvernement. L’opposition d’intellectuels tarés n’attend que pour bouffer l’argent et tuer le peuple comme à l’époque sous yayi boni. Faut surtout pas que Le président laisse passer cette opposition
Well, its downfall!
They honorable Marcus Garvey said they Nubian,His a Afrikan leader with a Colonialists mind set,!!
