Thousands rally in protest around the French embassy in Niamey, Niger

Description

Thousands rally outside the French embassy in Niamey, to protest against France's presence in the country. Demonstrators hold up signs reading 'Long live the Nigerien army, down with France, down with ECOWAS' (Economic Community of West African States). Former colonial ruler France has suspended security cooperation and financial aid to the jihadist-hit country after General Abdourahamane Tiani, head of the elite Presidential Guard, on Friday declared himself the West African country's new leader, two days after his forces confined democratically elected President Mohamed Bazoum to his official residence.
