Written by Olarotimi Oshin on August 11, 2023
The Coalition of Northern Groups(CNG) has expressed its stand on the fallout of the expiration of ECOWAS ultimatum to Niger and the second extraordinary ECOWAS Summit held in Abuja, calling on the authorities concerned not to escalate the situation through unnecessary threats.
This was contained in statement signed by the spokesperson of the Coalition of Northern Groups, Suleiman Abdul-Azeez, issued on Friday.
The Coalition of Northern Groups further stated that the rigid positions assumed by both ECOWAS and the military leaders in Niger left very little space for honest discussions towards peaceful resolution.
