The candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in the February 25 presidential election, Barr Adewole Adebayo has lent his voice to the call for the military junta in Niger Republic to hand over power to the democratically elected president of the country and return to barracks.
Adebayo appealed to the Nigerien coupists to respect the country’s constitution by restoring the democratically election government of Mohamed Bazoum and return to the barracks.
He commended the efforts of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) to restore power to the ousted Bazoum, saying the regional body was on the side of history.
He maintained that the military cannot rule the people when they were not democratically elected while stressing that they would be granted amnesty when and if they hand over to Bazoum and return to the barracks.
He also noted that replacing Western imperialism with that of the East was not the solution but African nationalism, which he said must be democratic.
He said: “I call on the junta in Niger to surrender now and return to the barracks under amnesty. You cannot rule unelected by Nigériens. @ecowas_cedeao is on the good side of history. Imperialism of the East is no remedy for imperialism of the West. African nationalism must be democratic.”
