AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Niger Airport Attack: The Alliance of Sahel States (AES) condemned the JNIM-linked assault on Niamey’s Diori Hamani International Airport, saying it was meant to weaken Niger’s armed forces and was backed by “foreign state sponsors,” after Niger’s Defense Ministry reported 13 killed (11 security, 2 civilians), 22 attackers neutralized and about 20 arrests. Security on Niger Roads: Suspected Lakurawa terrorists blocked the Mokwa–New Bussa Road in Niger State, triggering panic and forcing detours before security teams pushed them back into Ibbi Forest. Border Talks: Niger and Benin have started work to reopen their shared border after expert talks in Cotonou, with both sides laying groundwork for future agreements. Rights and Law: Niger’s military government criminalised homosexuality for the first time, introducing prison terms for same-sex acts and for officiating or supporting same-sex marriages. Local Voices: Niger stakeholders say voters need better education to choose leaders, as insecurity and governance concerns continue to shape public trust.
