Niger Republic’s military junta has agreed to dialogue with the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) in order to resolve the political crisis in the country.
Nigeria’s intervention team, led by Sheikh Bala Lau confirmed this to newsmen after deliberating on all issues, including the ECOWAS’ demand to reinstate former President Bazoum.
Bala Lau further told newsmen that the team, which was in Niger on behalf of President Bola Tinubu’s approval to intervene, said the visit is to engage in constructive dialogue in order to encourage the military leaders behind the coup for peace to reign in the country.
