Niger has accepted an Algerian offer to mediate in its political crisis, Algeria’s foreign ministry said on Monday, five weeks after the North African country proposed a six-month transition process led by a civilian.
There was no immediate comment from Niger’s ruling junta. Algeria has repeatedly warned against any military response to the crisis in neighbouring Niger, where the presidential guard seized power and established a junta in July, saying it wanted a three-year transition process. It said it would propose guarantees for all sides in the crisis and host a conference on development in the Sahel region, without elaborating.
Tinubu is the chairman of the main West African bloc ECOWAS, which has been trying to negotiate with the Niger military junta. ECOWAS has said it is ready to deploy troops if diplomatic efforts to restore order were unsuccessful.
