Nigeria wants Niger Republic to free ex-president Mohamed Bazoum right away. Information Minister Mohammed Idris made this demand at a terrorism conference in Spain. He asked for Bazoum, his family, and government members to be released without conditions since their detention after last July's military takeover.
Idris said Nigeria will keep working with partners to bring back proper government to Niger. President Tinubu leads these efforts as head of ECOWAS, the West African group handling the crisis. The minister promised Nigeria would continue pushing until constitutional order returns to their neighbor country.
The military coup has made the area less safe, Idris warned during his speech. He stated firmly that Nigeria believes army takeovers have no place in today's world. The country stands against such actions anywhere they happen, especially in West Africa. The terrorism meeting gathered important officials from many nations to discuss fighting extremist threats together.
