Niger: '’content'' of transition ''agreed'' before ECOWAS opinion
|
[AFRICANEWS] The Togolese Minister of Foreign Affairs in mediation in Niamey affirmed Thursday to have "agreed on the content" and "timing of the transition" in Niger with the Prime Minister of this country led by a military regime since a coup d'état, before the notice of other West African countries.
The head of Togolese diplomacy, Robert Dussey, said on Nigerien national television Télé Sahel having "worked and agreed on the content and timing of the transition" with "the Prime Minister", Ali Mahaman Lamine Zeine, and "the Minister of Foreign Affairs" Nigeriens, Bakary Yaou Sangaré.
"We will already present to the heads of state mediators and to the ECOWAS Commission (Economic Community of West African States) this content (...) agreed together", he added.
According to Télé Sahel, Mr. Dussey will return to Niamey in January with his counterpart from Sierra Leone, Timothy Kabba. Mr. Kabba was to be present during this mediation, said Mr. Dussey, but"a constraint prevented him from making the trip" in Niamey.

To the north, Pendjari National Park offers safaris with elephants, hippos and lions and tigers and bears, oh my!...
, Togo, and Sierra Leone would negotiate with the Nigerien military regime the commitments to be implemented, before a possible relaxation of the sanctions taken by the regional organization shortly after the July 26 coup.
