NIAMEY, July 26 (Reuters) - Niger President Mohamed Bazoum has been removed from power, according to a group of soldiers who appeared on the West African nation's national television late on Wednesday, hours after the president was held in the presidential palace.

Reading from a statement, Colonel Amadou Abdramane, seated and flanked by nine other officers wearing fatigues, said the defence and security forces had decided: "Put an end to the regime that you know due to the deteriorating security situation and bad governance."

Abdramane said the country's borders are closed and a nationwide curfew declared, and all institutions of the republic were suspended.

The soldiers warned against any foreign intervention.

Buhari second home has been captured by soldiers. The singular fact that Niger republic president align with Bubu makes me want to believe that this their current president is an national disaster like his brother bubu.

Good news and welcome development!

So those Jihadist dey fear Buhari. They wait for him to leave power before they try to initiate a coup in Niger. Same way Putin waited for Trump to leave power before invading Ukraine.

The level of corruption and bad governance from this our thieving politicians and their cronies is enough to have prompted the military to take over but The reason why a military coup cannot or will not happen in Nigeria is because the military guys are beneficiaries of the rotten civilian democracy which reeks of corruption at all levels. Military equipment contracts, mining activities under the cover of banditry, weapons racketeering and all. They have been settled with their own department of free for all while the civilian is busy with theirs. Nepotism and corruption at all levels is the order of the day

He did same in the past and is probably privy to what's happening there. He has been going there frequently for some time now.
