Niger’s junta, which recently ousted President Mohamed Bazoum, is seeking to recruit tens of thousands of volunteers as nearby nations threaten to invade the country.
The initiative, spearhead by a group of locals in Niamey, aims to recruit tens of thousands of volunteers from across the country to register for the Volunteers for the Defense of Niger, to fight, assist with medical care, and provide technical and engineering logistics among other functions, in case the junta needs help, Amsarou Bako, one of the founders, told The Associated Press Tuesday.
