Niger’s Military Junta Appoints Ex-Economy Minister As New Prime Minister

A former Minister of Economy and Finance Ali Mahaman Lamine Zeine has been appointed Niger Republic‘s new Prime Minister.

He was appointed the Prime Minister by the country’s self declared Head of State Abdourahmane Tiani.

A spokesman for the military junta made the announcement on television late on Monday night.

The new prime minister had served in the cabinet of then-president Mamadou Tandja, who was toppled by the country’s military in 2010.

Zeine replaces Mahamadou Ouhoumoudou, who was in Europe during the coup.

The junta also appointed Amadou Didilli as the head of the country’s High Authority for Peace Consolidation (HACP) and Abou Tague Mahamadou as the inspector-general of the army and the national gendarmerie.

Ibro Amadou Bachirou was appointed as the private chief of staff of the junta leader while Habibou Assoumane was named the commander of the presidential guard.

Tiani, until his new role as Niger’s head of state, had led the presidential guard which had held democratically elected President Mohamed Bazoum hostage since July 26.

An ultimatum from the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) to the coup plotters to reinstate Bazoum or risk a military intervention expired on Sunday.

ECOWAS said it will meet on Thursday to discuss how to proceed.
