YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe military junta that took control of Niger in a coup late last month declared the members of a new government Cabinet on Thursday.
Prime Minister Ali Mahaman Lamine Zeine, a civilian economist, will lead the 21-member government, with generals from the new military governing council heading the defense and interior ministries.
The announcement came as leaders of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) bloc met for an emergency summit on the situation in Niger. The meeting comes two weeks after a military coup overthrew President Mohamed Bazoum.
The bloc says it is seeking a diplomatic solution, although it has not ruled out using force to resolve the crisis.
