ECOWAS Rejects Niger Junta’s 3-year Transition Plan by fergie001: 9:46pm On Aug 20, 2023
The Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) has rejected the three-year power transition plan proposed by Niger Republic’s military junta.

Abdel-Fatau Musah, ECOWAS commissioner for political affairs, peace and security, spoke on Sunday in an interview with the BBC.

ECOWAS rejected the three-year timeframe after talks on Sunday.

"ECOWAS is not accepting any prolonged transition again in the region. They just have to get ready to hand over in the shortest possible time," Abdel-Fatau Musah, the bloc's commissioner for political affairs, peace and security, told the BBC.

He said the "military aspect is very much on".

He added: "The earlier they give power back to civilians and concentrate on their primary responsibility that is defending the territorial integrity of Niger, the better for them."

LMAO!

These Ecowas countries must think themselves to be lords over Western Africa. It's the audacity with which they're trying to make decisions for a sovereign country, that has me in stitches.

A new democratic dispensation.

As in, they want to be allowed to hold on to power until then?
Can they be trusted to handover power when the time comes?

Whether they can be trusted or not is not in anyone's place to question. It's their country for crying out loud!

The junta is feeling the heat and tactically looking for some soft landing. Niger is a small country, non military actions can do the magic. More sanctions should be imposed

3 years too long to restore democracy abeg. Make them install interim with a civilian as ahead, within six months election should be conducted. The military should go back to Barracks where they belong cool

Good 👍

The power-hungry mofos should not be allowed to wield a formidable strength within the proposed 3-year transition.

I don't like the idea of war. But countries have been invaded over the actions of their dictators.
