The protest against the expulsion of French troops in Niger has entered its third day
In the Republic of Niger, more demonstrations are expected in the city of Yamai regarding the request for French troops to leave the West African country.
Yesterday, Saturday, thousands of people rallied outside the French military base in Yamai.
There are at least 1,500 French troops in Niger fighting jihadists in the Sahel region.
The relationship between Niger and its former mistress has been strained since the military coup against President Mohamed Bazoum last July.
On Friday, the head of Niger's army criticized the decision of French President Emmanuel Macron to reject their government, saying that they always talk to Bazoum Bazoum on the phone.
