AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Niger Security & Governance: Niger State Governor Umaru Bago visited Kagara after Fulani-Kamuku clashes killed 256 people and destroyed 145 homes, ordering an immediate suspension of all land transactions to stop further land-driven violence. Elections Watch: INEC in Niger State says it has identified past election gaps and is working with security agencies to make 2027 polls more credible, transparent, inclusive and secure. Political Realignment: A Niger State political group led by Mikail Al-Ami Bmitosahi says it has left the APC for the ADC, accusing Governor Bago of sidelining stakeholders and promising to mobilize across all 25 local councils for 2027. Media Freedom: Two Nigerien journalists, Youssouf Seriba and Oumarou Kane, were released after months in detention, while a third reporter remains jailed over a leaked invitation. Telecom Regulation: ARCEP warned Niger’s mobile operators (Zamani, Airtel, Moov Africa, Celtel) to fix Niamey network quality within one month or face sanctions. Regional Diplomacy: Nigeria urged ECOWAS to strengthen unity against terrorism while keeping dialogue with Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger, and called for prompt payment of the ECOWAS levy.
