The Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) has debunked a report of a so-called
ECOWAS proposed
transition timeframe for
Niger, describing it as fake news.
A communique issued by the commission on Thursday 31st August noted that.
The ECOWAS Commission’s
attention has been drawn to a report of a so-called
ECOWAS proposed
transition timeframe for
Niger.
The report, which is in
French and supposedly
carried by AFP, is false, and
should be treated as fake news.
It added that the ECOWAS still stands on its demand to restore constitutional order in the Niger Republic.
The demand of the Authority
of ECOWAS Heads of State and Government is clear: the military authorities in
Niger must restore
constitutional order
immediately by
liberating and reinstating H.E. Excellency President Mohamed Bazoum.
The statement ended.
