Africa News: Niger’s deposed president is running out of food and experiencing other increasingly dire conditions two weeks after he was ousted in a military coup and put under house arrest, an advisor told The Associated Press on Wednesday.
President Mohamed Bazoum, the West African nation’s democratically elected leader, has been held at the presidential palace in Niamey with his wife and son since mutinous soldiers moved against him on July 26.
The family is living without electricity and only has rice and canned goods left to eat, the advisor said. Bazoum remains in good health for now and will never resign, according to the advisor, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the sensitive situation with the media.
Bazoum’s political party issued a statement confirming the president’s living conditions and said the family also was without running water. more
Why should we care? Thanks to Bidumb and democrats lots of people here are low on food. MAGA,A!
Don’t worry, Bazoum. I’m sure the Globalists have got scads of Special Forces on the way to save their grifts—I mean, save your Presidency.
