[Billet d'humour] La CEDEAO et ses tartines de chaos !
ECOWAS really has its work cut out for it… or rather, a mountain of chaos to spread on its endless meetings. First, there's Embaló, the ousted (or not, it's hard to tell anymore) president of Guinea-Bissau, who's zigzagging between Dakar, Brazzaville, and finally Morocco, phone glued to his ear like a teenager addicted to their video game console. The junta that removed him seems so close… and so distant at the same time, a real political soap opera.
Then came Talon, the Beninese president, who narrowly escaped a swift coup d'état — the coup plotters had even gone on TV to announce that he had been "dismissed".
It's like being in a bad telenovela: cliffhanger guaranteed, maximum suspense, no commercial breaks.
ECOWAS, true to form, releases its typical statement: "Unconstitutional action," "Subversion of the will of the people," and above all: "We are vigilant, ready to mobilize all necessary means." Translation: another statement will be written later.
Meanwhile, Benin is revising its Constitution, six months before the presidential election, establishing a Senate, extending presidential terms from five to seven years… and designating the Senate as the supreme guardian of democracy, national unity, development, peace, and all that glitters. A veritable anti-chaos superstructure, ECOWAS-style: much talk, little action, but everything is enshrined in the Constitution in case the coup leader has any doubts.
In the end, ECOWAS continues its marathon: Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso, Bissau, Benin… soon it'll be a Panini sticker album of coups d'état. Between press releases, it's perhaps just hoping that no one spills the beans before it's finished its tour.
West African chaos has never been so… spicy.

LA CDEAO N'EST D'AUCUNE UTILITE POUR LE PROGRES DE L'AFRIQUE. C'EST JUSTE UNE HONTE , UNE FARCE AFRICAINE. ELLE PASSE TOUT SON TEMPS CHANGER INJUSTEMENT SES POSITIONS SELON LES CAPRICES DE SES DIRIGEANT ET MEME QUELQUES FOIS LES INTERETS DE LA FRANCE. C'EST POURQUOI LA CDEAO A PERDU LE RESPECT LA CREDIBILITE ET LA CONFIANCE DE LA POPULATION AFRICAINE ET SURTOUT DE TOUTE LA JEUNESSE AFRICAINE QUI SOUHAITE MEME SA DISSOLUTION TOUT COURT. BONNE SOIREE A TOUS !!!
