  FAKE DEMOCRATS, FAKE COUPS & NEO-COLONIALIST INTERVENTIONS BY PUPPET ECOWAS!
  
  France was behind the fake coups in Guinea-Conakry, Gabon, Madagascar and Guinea-Bissau. France was also behind the neo-colonialist intervention in Benin led by Nigeria and its fellow-puppet ECOWAS troops, including NDC-led Ghana.
  
  Kotoka-ist NDC, which honours a coup-leader at Accra International Airport, cannot even see the farcical theatre of rushing troops at the behest of neo-colonial France to protect an undemocratic and corrupt president in Benin.
