After a military junta removed Niger's president, Mohammed Bazoum, the country faces a potential invasion from the regional bloc ECOWAS. To defend their territory, residents in the capital city, Niamey, are rallying for a large-scale recruitment of volunteers to support the army. ECOWAS has given a deadline for the junta to reinstate President Bazoum, and if not met, military force may be used. In response, a local group in Niamey is leading an initiative to enlist tens of thousands of volunteers from across the nation. These volunteers will assist the junta with various tasks, including fighting, providing medical care, and offering technical and engineering support. The recruitment drive will start in Niamey and other cities near potential invasion points, such as the borders with Nigeria and Benin. Registration is open to individuals over 18 years old, and the list of volunteers will be shared with the junta if needed. It's important to note that the junta is not directly involved in this initiative, but they are aware of it.
