Niger’s coup leader has proposed a three-year transition to civilian rule after meeting a delegation of West African leaders and warned that any attack on the country would “not be a walk in the park” for those involved.
General Abdourahmane Tchiani, speaking on national television late on Saturday, gave no details on the planned transition of power, saying only that the principles for the move would be decided within 30 days at a dialogue to be hosted by the ruling military council.
The junta is continuing to rally support in the capital and has called for a mass mobilisation in the face of threats of military action by ECOWAS.
Al Jazeera's Nicolas Haque has the story.
