Niger‘s military coup leaders announced the appointment of Ali Mahaman Lamine Zeine as prime minister on Monday evening in a statement read out on national television, at a time when the international community is seeking to restore constitutional order.
“Mr (Ali Mahaman) Lamine Zeine has been appointed Prime Minister”, Colonel Major Amadou Abdramane reported.
As soon as he came to power, former president Mamadou Tandja appointed Ali Mahaman Lamine Zeine cabinet director in 2001, then finance minister in 2002, to turn around a chaotic economic and financial situation.
President Bazoum has remained sequestered in his private residence since the day of the coup.
