Nigeria has cut its electricity supply to Niger after West African neighbors imposed sanctions on the junta that ousted the country’s elected leader last week, a Niger power company source said on Wednesday.
“Since yesterday, Nigeria has disconnected the high-voltage line transporting electricity to Niger,” a source at Niger’s power company Nigelec told AFP.
Niger depends on Nigeria for 70 percent of its power, buying it from the Nigerian company Mainstream, according to Nigelec, the country’s monopoly supplier.

So why are you opposing Trumps policies?
Trump’s 40 points list I sent you are official White House polices from 2016-2020.
So again, why are you opposing Trumps policies?
Report that loser. Lets get rid of his garbage. Wasting bandwith.
You are absurd. Consistently.
“You are absurd. Consistently.”
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
MarMema,
Are you alright?
You just said that Trump’s policies noted here below are “ABSURD” !?
There is nothing “absurd” about me sending you verifiable facts about what Trump did during his 4 years as President.
Why do you say Trump’s policies are absurd? If you do, you shouldn’t be on a conservative website like FR.
When you oppose Trump’s policies as you just did, you prove to everyone here on FR that you are a far left troll - supporting the Russia-China-Iran alliance.
Don’t you feel a tiny bit of shame?

Stop spamming Free Republic, troll.
Go take your globalist agenda over to D.U.
“Stop spamming Free Republic, troll.

>>>>>>>>>
YOU are the commie-spam guy here, period. We know who you are.
When you say that Trump’s anti-Russia policies I sent you earlier is a “globalist agenda”, you should be ashamed. Deeply ashamed.
You and your Globo-Russia-China-Iran friends should not be on an American conservative website.
You have decided to defy Trump’s Russia policies. It’s your mistake.
Stop spamming Free Republic, troll.
Go away spammer.
In a way I feel badly cause I think there is a medical issue.
Early dementia or post stroke maybe.
It makes no sense. Overly concrete.
Like a ten yo.
“Stop spamming Free Republic, troll.”
>>>>>>>>>
Stop trolling FR with your anti-Trump agenda.
It’s time for you to start supporting conservatism.
“Go away spammer.”
>>>>>>>>>
Stop trolling FR with your anti-Trump agenda.
America is NOT Russia.
Perhaps, though it exhibits willful troll/disruptor behaviors. Only a tiny number of FR posters support involving us in foreign conflicts/civil wars, especially the Russia-Ukraine situation. The few posters who aren’t obvious trolls have also tended to abandon support over time as this continues to drag out. They’ve recognized this is a mass-money laundering scheme to globalist criminal oligarchs (with Plugs the Pedo and fam getting kickbacks).
These trolls, I suspect, also have multiple accounts. They use the same debunked arguments, personal attacks, spamming, links to leftist websites to support their globalist agenda, and so on. This particular troll tries to falsely link President Trump to supporting his globalist agenda. President Trump has been clear as a bell that he does not support our involvement or sending billions to criminals overseas.
Like Ukraine is a Nazi state?
Personal attacks?
How many hundreds and thousands of times have you people called people who support Ukraine some variety of homosexual?
Links to Leftist websites? How many Russians and leftists have you guys linked to? Scott Ritter is a convicted pedophile who is "touring" Russia to promote a book. Apparently if you support Ukraine you are supporting "globalhomo" because Zelenskyy was a comedian who did a skit once that had him playing the piano with his member. Should I call you "globalpedo" because of that? Would that be fair game?
I have never seen a group of people who lack this amount of self-awareness. Do me a favor and see the kind of posts that would get you banned in the mid 2000's from here. Leftist hate for America has nothing on the Russophiles. You would have been banned from here if you said the kind of stuff you say about your own country nowadays. The only reason you aren't is that it is fashionable to hate America when Russia is involved because "MAGA".
In this case, unless Nuland shows up with very significantly bigger fistfuls of money than the Russians, I doubt she’ll have any effect.
“Appearing” doesn’t make one a “player”.
Debunked.
"Like Ukraine is a Nazi state?"
That's not debunked. You got your military that is quite apparently neo-Nazi. An "unpleasant" fact to some folks here.
"Personal attacks?"
Yup. Nothing but personal attacks from the trolls.
"How many hundreds and thousands of times have you people called people who support Ukraine some variety of homosexual?"
You're supporting a corrupt and evil state whose main goal and leader at present is normalizing Sodomy and the globalist degenerate agenda. Nevermind it's already the worst state in Europe for child sex trafficking, which the oligarchs that run it the Pedo-in-Cheat in DC is sending billions to. Another fact you trolls ignore.
"Links to Leftist websites?"
Nothing but, since it's the globalist leftists that support interfering in this civil war. The lead trolls here spam FR with nothing but leftist links on a daily basis. This kind of crap would've earned mass-ZOT's in the past if someone were coming on here to cheerlead for Demonrat candidates, yet this garbage is continuously spammed.
"How many Russians and leftists have you guys linked to?"
Linking to Russian websites is bad, but linking to leftist globalist websites is good ? I've linked to no leftist websites, that's your trolls doing that.
"Scott Ritter is a convicted pedophile who is "touring" Russia to promote a book."
I don't need Scott Ritter to support my position that we should stay out of this civil war. The fact that a convicted pedophile has more sense than a lot of elected "leaders" on this issue is quite disturbing.
"Apparently if you support Ukraine you are supporting "globalhomo" because Zelenskyy was a comedian who did a skit once that had him playing the piano with his member."
That he did that at all makes him a degenerate exhibitionist. And he has already demonstrated he wants to fully normalize Sodomy and child sex trafficking by his actions.
"Should I call you "globalpedo" because of that? Would that be fair game?"
Since when has applying logic and reason been your side's credo ? All you do is make up insults and falsely echo (as above) correct pronouncements about the wrongness of what you support. It's your side supporting the most corrupt and evil state in Europe, its degenerate dictator (who refuses to face the electorate) and the oligarch globalists who profit from off these billions being sent to support their child sex trafficking state.
"I have never seen a group of people who lack this amount of self-awareness."
Remarkable in that this is absolutely 100% applicable to you and yours. You keep breaking the cognitive dissonance meter.
"Do me a favor and see the kind of posts that would get you banned in the mid 2000's from here."
Again, you're the side supporting the leftist globalist Soros agenda. That that filth is allowed to remain on FR is why so many good posters have decided to go elsewhere.
"Leftist hate for America has nothing on the Russophiles."
America, sadly, has become the #1 exporter of the globalist degenerate homosexualist-tranny agenda. Holding it like a gun to everyone else's heads internationally. See Niger. Russia is standing like a rock against this degeneracy, along with brave African states and a few others. Used to be America wasn't the bad guys. But you guys have no problem with this whatsoever.
"You would have been banned from here if you said the kind of stuff you say about your own country nowadays."
It's called the truth, Hoss. Take a look at what is illegally occupying the White House and almost all other facets of our government and institutions. A cancerous globalist degenerate evil is fully in control, which comes straight from Satan himself. Pretending that isn't true is merely just lying to others and to yourself.
" The only reason you aren't is that it is fashionable to hate America when Russia is involved because "MAGA"."
I don't hate America. I hate what the corrupt and evil degenerates in BOTH parties have done to this country, especially over the past 3 decades. Apparently this is a fact oblivious to you and yours. But, hey, keep pushing this current distraction in Europe that could trigger WW3. The globalists are counting on you !

You are insane. A state headed by a Jew who is a Nazi? See an exorcist and get whatever spawn of hell is inside you, out. You are beyond anything but divine help. I hope all of FR sees this and finally comes to its senses and realizes that this site is infested with Russian operatives and sick, sick psychopaths.
Despite this being an obvious falsehood, this is clearly a personal attack. You can't win an argument ever, as I debunked your entire previous post, so you fall back to personal attacks. This isn't a globalist Soros-supporting website, yet you side with the leftist ideology and defend a warmongering pervert and sicko exhibitionist who serves as a puppet for these same globalist oligarchs that want their child sex-trafficking state preserved under their control. I suggest, sir or madam, that you turn to God for help, because you're absolutely lying to yourself about what's going on here. Have a nice day.
Do you really imagine seeing Jesus on judgement day, and telling him that you should get into heaven because you cheered on the death of men, women, and children to stick it to "globalhomo"? Or that those 100,000+ were neo-Nazis?
You have created such a boogeyman in your mind that you see actual deaths as equivalent to some weird obsession you have with gays under your bed.
You want to equate actual evils to things you have puffed up in your head. The scary thing is, is that I have little doubt that if Russia attacked the US, you would take the Russians side if they came up with some BS about saving you from homosexuals, or protecting Trump, or one other of your bugaboos. You have been manipulated so easily and so completely that I am actually beginning to think that having leftists in charge is the lesser of two evils.
You might not believe this, but I was actually sympathetic to Russia right up until the beginning of the invasion. I was told by the pro-Russia contingent that Russia wouldn't invade and I believed them. I liked Russia's seemingly pro-Christian and pro-Western civilization stance.
When they invaded, all the current Russia defenders, who accused the Biden administration of lying, suddenly went from assuring us that Russia would never invade, to trying to justify it.
I might be a fool, but I am not a shill for evil. I am not going to pretend that evil is okay to save my self image. Perversion is bad, but murder is worse. I won't sell my soul to Putin so I don't have to admit to a mistake. I will not sell out my civilization for some brownie points with a bunch of people who think being a good person is being a machoman who kills and blusters to burnish his own ego and feel like a big man. I am a conservative because of principles, not just to be on a sports team and excuse the evils of my own side so that I can feel like a winner.
