In Niger, 41 prefects have recently been appointed to lead the various departments of the country.
Within the territorial administration of Niger, new officials have been appointed. The Council of Ministers, convened at the Presidential Palace in Niamey, made this decision. Furthermore, all the new heads of the 41 departments come from the defense and security forces.
According to the Council of Ministers, the appointment of military personnel to lead the departments is justified by the National Council for the Safeguard of the Homeland’s intention to prevent and/or better address the defense and security issues faced by these areas due to armed banditry and terrorism.
