Niger: Terrorists set fire to food trucks on the border with Burkina Faso
Some suspected terrorists shot a Ghanaian driver who was driving a truck while he was trying to export food from the Republic of Niger.
The attackers, who are believed to be terrorists, not only attacked the convoy, but also set fire to many trucks.
Currently, the injured driver is being treated at a health center in Niger.
He was among the group of drivers who chose the Burkina Faso route to deliver essential food items to Ghana.
The move followed the closure of Niger's borders as a result of the coup d'état by the military, which led to conflict with the ECOWAS group.
According to reports, the drivers tried to cross the Burkina Faso border by themselves, after waiting to be escorted.
The crisis that followed the overthrow of the government of President Mohamed Bazoum by the military has recently thrown Niger into a state of uncertainty.
This political upheaval has seriously hampered the movement of goods and people to or from the West African country.
