NIGER : ECOWAS REJECTS THREE-YEAR TIME FRAME 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.”
