History
In 2007/08, the clashes with the Tuareg in the north of the country intensified again. Despite international and national protests, Tandja dissolved parliament and the constitutional court in 2009 because both institutions had opposed his plans to run for a third term. In a referendum held on August 4, 2009, according to official information, a majority of voters approved a constitutional amendment that extended Tandja’s term of office. The opposition, which had called for a boycott of the vote, accused the president of massive electoral fraud. Tandja closed in October 2009a peace agreement with the Tuareg to increase its domestic political room for maneuver. The parliamentary elections in the same month were also boycotted by the opposition after diplomatic attempts to persuade Tandja to postpone the elections and start talks with the opposition failed. In protest against the controversial parliamentary elections, the Economic Community of West African States suspended Niger’s membership. In February 2010, Tandja was overthrown by the military. A “Supreme Council for the Restoration of Democracy” (CSRD) appointed a transitional government. On October 31, 2010, the population voted in a referendum for the adoption of a new constitution. On March 12, 2011, Mahamadou Issoufou , PNDS candidate, in the runoff election for president against MNSD politician Seyni Oumarou (* 1950) enforce. The PNDS also won the parliamentary elections on January 31, 2011. The country’s domestic and foreign policy was subsequently influenced by the confrontation with the terrorism of Islamic fundamentalists. On May 23, 2013, fighters from the terrorist group al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM) attacked a barracks in the city of Agadès and a uranium mine in Arlit. At least 23 people died. In order to fight Boko Haram more effectively, Niger, Chad, Cameroon, Benin and Nigeria agreed in January 2015 as part of a reaction force of the African Union to carry out joint military activities against the terror group, whose militias in the border area of Niger and Nigeria showed increasing activity.
After Parliamentary President Hama Amadou’s MODEN / FA party decided in August 2013 to leave the governing coalition, a domestic power struggle broke out between Amadou, who was Prime Minister in 1995/96 and 2000-07, and President Issoufou. In August 2014, Amadou, who was considered the favorite for the 2016 presidential election, fled to France because the authorities accused him of involvement in the illegal trafficking of children. As Amadou returned to Niger in November 2015 to participate in the presidential election campaign, he was arrested at the airport. High-ranking military officials were arrested in December 2015 for alleged coup plans. On February 21, 2016, the first round of the presidential election and the parliamentary elections took place. The incumbent M. Issoufou achieved around 48.4% of the votes, followed by the imprisoned challenger Amadou, who received around 17.8% of the votes. The runoff election on March 20, 2016, overshadowed by a boycott by the opposition, was won by M. Issoufou according to the electoral court with 92.5% of the vote. In the parliamentary elections, the PNDS presidential party won 75 of the 171 seats. Moden / FA had 25 seats and the MSND party had 20 seats. M. Issoufou was sworn in on April 2, 2016 for a second term as President. In early June 2016, fighters from Boko Haram from Nigeria attacked the town of Bosso, which is near the border, killing at least 32 soldiers. According to the UN, around 50,000 people fled Bosso. Al-Qaeda terrorists in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM) who penetrated from Mali murdered 22 police officers guarding the Tazalit refugee camp in early October 2016.
