Niamey Receives Trucks Of Food, Essentials From Burkina Faso (1153 Views)

Around 300 trucks of food and other materials crossed into Niger from Burkina Faso with many arriving in the capital, Niamey Sunday, according to a regional customs official.

The convoy of trucks departed from Burkina Faso, the last open border with Niger since the West African regional bloc imposed sanctions after mutinous soldiers overthrew the country’s president last month.

But the route between Burkina Faso and Niger is lined with jihadi groups, making it dangerous to drive and requiring military escorts from both armies.

Niger’s coup was seen by the international community and ECOWAS as one too many and in addition to threatening a military invasion, the bloc has imposed severe economic and travel sanctions.

In the first six months of 2023, attacks on civilians were 49% lower than in the first six months of 2022, and the number of deaths 16% lower, according to the NGO Acled, which records the victims of conflicts around the world.

Western observers and partners, notably , a privileged ally of the ousted regime which still has 1,500 troops in Niger, have highlighted these encouraging results.

This improvement is partly attributed to the strategy implemented by Mr Bazoum, the only one of its kind in the Sahel, to combat jihadist groups.

While the military regimes in neighbouring Mali and Burkina Faso are carrying out “anti-terrorist” operations that are accused of taking a heavy toll on civilian populations, Niger has opted for a policy of “extending a helping hand”.

Peace agreements between communities, development projects, negotiations with leaders of armed groups… A strategy considered promising and appreciated by Western partners, but criticized in Niger, particularly within the army.

Give evidence that 100% of Niger people the coup. So because you saw tens of thousands of hired people rallying in of the military automatically means everybody in Niger is happy about the coup?? Even if majority is in of illegality, does it automatically make it legal??

Minus French citizens, 99.9% of people living in Niger republic s the coup, they see it as an opportunity for to leave them alone
And of a truth is seriously exploiting this people.

Come to Stade General Kuntche last Saturday and see thousands that came as volunteer to the military, one man came with his children all of them ready to fight for their country
ECOWAS should just leave this people alone

Then never see anything yet, how long would Burkina Faso keep supplying them with trucks load of foods and supply, even the trucks are not safe because of rebels. Is this how they intend to wage war against ECOWAS?
