Niger: The Gathering of Beninese Nationals in Niger plan a peaceful march of support this August 26, 2023

Solidarity with the peoples of Niger is growing more and more. After the descent of all the villages, all the communes in the streets to support the leaders of the CNSP, it is the turn of the nationals of Benin in Niger to show their solidarity. the Rally of Beninese Nationals in Niger (RRBN), launched a patriotic call for mobilization to its compatriots.

according to the press release, the RRBN, brings to the attention of all Beninese, administrator, teacher, student, worker residing in Niamey, to come out massively this Saturday, August 26, 2023, for a peaceful march. the goal is to say no to ECOWAS sanctions, no to the intervention of military troops and to reaffirm the solidarity and support of the RRBN, to the people of Niger.

the position of the Beninese authorities in the Niger affair, seems not to be to the liking of the gathering of Beninese nationals in Niger. The RRBN has understood the danger in which the Beninese authorities intend to put them. this gathering this Saturday would also be an opportunity for the RRBN to call on President Talon to review his position.

let us recall that, on August 3, the National Council for the Safeguarding of the Fatherland sent a blunt message: French soldiers, present since 2013 alongside the Nigerien army to fight against terrorism, must pack up.

During a speech on national television, Colonel Major Amadou Abdramane, spokesperson for the CNSP, officially denounced the five military cooperation agreements signed with Paris between 1977 and 2020
