- The Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) has cut Niger's electricity, prompting legal action from the military leadership.
Niger says it is in breach of an agreement of the 1960s and has led to people dying in hospitals, while small business owners say the extra cost of using generators means they have to lay off some staff.
Al Jazeera’s Ahmed Idris reports from Niamey, Niger.

Sadly enough to see how one african brother is capable of treating another just to mantain a good relationship with its european master.
I agree. The bandits that took over niger for Russias interests are a disagrace.
Yea..ECOWAS are the bastards of FRANCE
Very poor move by ECOWAS...sanctions affect the most vulnerable in society...
The sanctions is illegal, it's completely breach of contract and Nigeria Senate never gave power to president to sanctions Niger republic, president sanctions Niger because of pressure from western countries,if a leader like this can pray to western pressure then Nigeria have a problem.
They don't care about the people only how rich they can continue to get on the backs of the poor
NOpe. Excellent move by ECOWAS. Sanctions are VERY effective. And the longer they go on the better they are. The rogue bandits that took over niger dont think of the effects to the people. That is on THEM.
ECOWAS are learning from its colonial masters on how to starve the Natives.. Those in ECOWAS wants to be "White'
Wicked politicians 😂😂😂😂
Algeria should continue helping the needy brother
If there is a contract in place to provide electricity on what basis was this contract broken. Hope Niger put its own electricity going forward.
Tinubu is working for his master's
Funny how they never took action against them before when France organised the coups.
@@Ankgrooger prior to the war Ukraine cut off water supply to Crimea and was bombarding Donetsk with rockets. It is not a peaceful nation at all!
The electrical supply agreement must have an arbitration clause for resolving disputes between the two parties
Why is it necessarily to include the enemy in such dealings ... FRANCE should pack up and go so simple, if there wasn't NIGER were could be FRANCE sourcing the energy from?
Pain will not kill person is leasing,
Disappointed will not kill person is be careful.
Betrayed will not end progress.
Life will make who is your real friend thank You Aljazeera.
You will be stronger after this. Don't worry...one day you will have your own. God shall supply you ...but build your self dependence.
ECOWAS will not pay anything
When all of those young men lose their jobs and businesses along the border due to sanctions, they will resort to other ways to earn a living. Wonder what they could do🤔?
Yeah....lol. As if all these "young men" are in such respectable good jobs now. lol. Thats why the nation is doing so well i guess.
@@beaur252So, you agree that the French are robbing Niger blind. So rich in minerals and no jobs for the youths Money all taken by France. Just shut your holier than thou dirty, disgusting Colonial mouth.

Start staand on your own foot. Be free !
Ok ask the rest of Africa and Brice to sanctions Nigeria
Because of puppet we want to be free
France is funny
Algeria should continue helping the needy brother
Algeria should continue helping the needy brother
