Niger Coup: ECOWAS to hold another emergency summit after Niger's junta ignores ultimatum

ECOWAS Heads of State are to hold another Extraordinary Summit on the political situation in the Republic of Niger Republic.

Nigeria President Bola Ahmed Tinubu who is also Chairman of the Authority of Heads of State and Government of the Economic Community of West African States has convened another Extraordinary Summit of the Authority on the political crisis in the Republic of Niger.

The Summit will take place in Abuja, on Thursday, August 10, 2023.

The ECOWAS leaders will be considering and discussing the recent developments in Niger after a coup ousted President Mohamed Bazoum.

ECOWAS has warned that it will take what it calls “all necessary measures” if Bazoum is not reinstated.

However, Niger’s military leaders remain defiant.

They’ve closed air space and put border forces on high alert.

They say Niger is ready to defend itself and they’re warning against any foreign aggression.

Nigeria Quds Day Protest: Pro-Palestinian Protesters vs Police in Abuja - Dozens Killed, Open Fire

In a violent crackdown during International Quds Day, Nigerian security forces opened fire on pro-Palestinian protesters in Abuja, killing at least 19 people and injuring dozens more. Video footage from the scene shows armed forces securing the perimeter as demonstrators flee, with some being dragged lifeless into trucks by soldiers. This violent suppression follows a pattern of force used against Quds Day demonstrators in previous years, sparking outrage and concern from human rights organizations. The Nigerian government had previously warned of potential unrest, citing concerns over the protesters' demands for justice in support of Palestine. This tragic event has left many questioning the Nigerian government's response to peaceful demonstrations and the growing tension surrounding global solidarity for Palestine. #Nigeria #QudsDay #PalestinianProtest #AbujaProtests #HumanRights #ProPalestine #InternationalQudsDay #PoliceBrutality #PeacefulProtest #ProtestViolence #NigeriaCrackdown #PalestinianSolidarity ~PR.274~ED.102~HT.410~GR.125~
