Niger’s Foreign Minister Represents Bazoum At ECOWAS Meeting

Niger’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Massoudou Hassoumi participated in the Extraordinary Summit of the Conference of Heads of State and Government of the Economic Community of West African States (CEDEAO), in Abuja on Thursday.

Naija News reports that Hoassoumi represented the ousted President, Mohamed Bazoum at the meeting held at the Old Banquet Hall of the Presidential Villa.

It was gathered that the meeting deliberated on the next line of actions that will follow up on the resolutions and ultimatum issued to the Nigerien junta, which recently sacked Bazoum from office.

President Tinubu had scheduled another meeting after the expiration of the seven-day ultimatum the regional bloc issued for the reinstatement of the Nigerien President.
