They're only restoring democracy, guys! Chill!  :rolleyes:

The sad part is, reading over a history of the Nigerian government, some of the military governments have been more ethical and effective than both their preceding and succeeding civilian counterparts. :hmm:

That's not going to change, Super Sarko probably already sent the Legion to protect their assets.

He probably already sent the Legion to train the people responsible for the Coup.  :ph34r:
