Le #Taureau ne juge pas les gens sur leur religion, leur couleur de peau, leurs opinions politiques ou leur orientation sexuelle. Tant que personne ne le dérange, tout va bien.

Totally agree while condemning any coup d'état which is not a revolution(when the people take back power in an ultimate reaction to the betrayal of the social contract by those to whom power was entrusted to). We must rethink seriously and responsibly how to reform Governance!!!

[Apostle Chris Onofua @apstchrisonofua]

AFRICA IS ON THE EDGE OF DEMOCRACY’S DESTRUCTION: CONTINENTAL STABILITY HANGS BY A THREAD AS LEADERSHIP FAILURE INVITES CHAOS AND MILITARY COUPS

The reported coup d'état in the Benin Republic is, if confirmed, yet another symptom of a deeper crisis across the African continent: a failure of leadership that consistently places power above the people. When elected governments treat citizens as subjects rather than stakeholders, instability becomes inevitable. No nation remains secure when its people feel enslaved by the very leaders they elected.

Across Africa, governance has collapsed into a system where authority is exercised without accountability. Presidents and governors often operate with an inflated sense of entitlement, ignoring the fundamental principle that leadership exists to serve, not dominate. The absence of justice, transparency, and fairness creates an environment ripe for revolt. These are not isolated incidents; they are predictable consequences of prolonged misrule, oppression, and enslavement.

When citizens no longer feel seen, heard, or valued, the legitimacy of government evaporates. Elections lose meaning. Institutions weaken. Security deteriorates. The social contract collapses. These conditions breed coups not because citizens crave military rule, but because democratic governments fail to uphold democratic values.

Across the continent, nations are approaching a breaking point. Where leadership fails, coups emerge. Where governance is absent, power vacuums form. Where the will of the people is ignored, force becomes the language of the oppressed.

The democratic system in many African countries has failed to deliver the promised dividends of freedom, development, or dignity. Instead, citizens are oppressed by their own leaders leaders who weaponize state power, manipulate elections, silence dissent, and enrich themselves at the expense of national progress.

This trajectory is dangerous. If African leaders do not urgently redefine leadership placing citizens at the center of governance, ensuring justice, economic opportunity, security, and human dignity more nations will experience instability. Democracy in Africa risks gradual erosion, replaced by endless cycles of takeover and counter-takeover.

Coups must be condemned without reservation. They disrupt development, endanger lives, and undermine constitutional order. But while condemning coups, we must also confront an uncomfortable truth: bad leadership fuels them.

The responsibility now lies with African presidents, governors, and policymakers to restructure their approach governing with humility, transparency, and a genuine commitment to the welfare of their people. Without decisive action, the continent will continue repeating the same destructive patterns.

A continent where those in government face mounting waves of unrest. To put it plainly, government officials and aides are rife with dishonesty, arrogance, and contempt toward the citizens they are meant to serve. Brutality of all kinds runs unchecked, while the judiciary and national assemblies operate to protect the powerful rather than uphold justice. This environment creates the very space in which crises, coups, and instability thrive. It is deeply, painfully, and undeniably destructive an indictment of leadership that has lost its moral compass.

This warning is not emotional; it is historical, political, and factual.

African leaders must wake up. Reform or rupture: these are the two paths before the continent.

Parfois, les #Taureau n’ont juste pas envie de parler. Rien de grave, on aime juste se poser, réfléchir et décompresser.

[Journal de croissance ™ @journaldecroix]

Le #Taureau excelle pour analyser les autres en toute discrétion. Soyez prudent avec vos paroles, car il a un sens aigu du détail.

[Journal de croissance ™ @journaldecroix]

Le #Taureau est passionné et assez énergique pour être capable de mener à bien ce qu’il souhaite.

Le #Taureau n’est pas impressionné par ce que tu as, mais par qui tu es.

Vous ne comprenez pas à quel point un #Taureau est "inaccessible" tant que vous n’avez pas perdu son attention.

[Journal de croissance ™ @journaldecroix]

L’énergie du #Taureau rayonne quand il est aligné avec lui-même : il diffuse naturellement sécurité et bien-être à ceux qui l’entourent, d’une manière qui n’appartient qu’à lui.

[Journal de croissance ™ @journaldecroix]

En tant que #Taureau, il y a trois choses que je ne supporte pas quand on me parle :
• Me parler comme si j’étais un enfant.
• Me parler comme si je devais te craindre.
• Me parler comme si j’étais stupide.

Fais l’une de ces trois choses et je m’énerve vite.

@elonmusk Not an IT expert, am even a total ignorant on this. However, couldn't the alleged fraud continue by AI or whatever technology used to respond to the email on reporting? Maybe physical headcounts would be the way to go... anyway, fraud must be dealt with, by avoiding fraud too :)

@charliekirk11 My daughter gave a great analogy last night. She said, "It is like when you are in school and you have a substitute teacher. Everyone misbehaves and tries to get away with everything. Then the real teacher shows up, and everyone is one the best behavior."
