The Federal Government has stated that it will never take any action to undermine the sovereignty of the neighbouring Niger Republic contrary to the allegations levelled by Niger’s military junta that Nigeria, in collaboration with France and some countries of West Africa, wants to destabilise Niger using terrorism.

A statement issued on Tuesday by Nigeria’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Ambassador Yusuf Tuggar noted that the Nigerian government reaffirms its unwavering commitment to peace, stability, and regional harmony in West Africa and is concerned about recent statements from President of the National Council for the Safeguard of the Homeland of Niger, Abdourahman Tchiani.

The statement read: “Nigeria remains steadfast in its desire for dialogue, which is the cornerstone of sustainable solutions. Therefore, we will not embark on any actions to undermine the sovereignty and security of Niger.

“As brothers and neighbours, Nigeria and Niger share deep historical and cultural ties, underscored by trade and economic interdependence. These enduring connections are reminders of our intrinsically linked destinies. Therefore, unfounded allegations cause needless tensions that could cause disaffection and threaten the collective progress of our region.”

The statement said further that Nigeria reaffirms its respect for Niger’s sovereignty and territorial integrity in alignment with ECOWAS principles.

Nigeria also encouraged open, constructive dialogue between the two governments and invited Niger’s leadership to join it in candid discussions to address mutual concerns.

“We are prepared to explore confidence-building measures, such as collective support, to alleviate the humanitarian impact on our border communities.

“We call upon regional and international partners to support efforts to foster reconciliation and stability rather than deepening divisions.

“Nigeria remains guided by the principles of diplomacy, mutual respect, and the pursuit of peace. We are confident that through constructive engagement, we can work together towards a more prosperous and stable future for our people,” the statement added.
