Will ECOWAS pledge support to President Bongo?

Ali Bongo Ondimba is the current president of the Economic Community of Central African States (ECCAS).

In mid-August 2023, President Bongo pledged his full support to one of ECOWAS’ resolutions to invade Niger.

Will the West African Regional Bloc, ECOWAS, step in now that Gabonese military officers have also deposed him?

This remains uncertain as the bloc is still struggling to settle the political crisis in Niger following the July coup d’etat.

Most of the member nations of the Economic Community of West African Nations (ECOWAS) have said they are prepared to take part in a standby force that may intervene in Niger after a military takeover.

The coup leaders have garnered support, particularly from the youth who say they want change and an end to foreign dominance in Africa.
