According to a report, the committee of chiefs of defence staff of ecowas who met in Nigeria on 2-4 August have given Niger until Sunday to reinstate president Bazoum. Reportedly, ecowas are linked to the World Sustainability Congress, a global registry of multi stakeholder partnerships made by the u.n. system to support u.n. goals. According to a report, the bloodless coup in Niger will have far reaching consequences for the Sahel.
