The Coalition of Pro-democracy Activists in Katsina State today strongly condemned and denounced what they termed as unjustifiable coup d’etat in Niger Republic and anywhere else in Africa.
The Coalition in a peaceful demonstration held in the state capital and led by its Chairperson, Bashir Dauda, further, condemn the arrogance and disrespect to world leaders and respected individuals such as the President of Chad, Mohammed Idris Derby, former Nigerian Head of State, General Abdulsalami Abubakar and Sultan of Sokoto, His Eminence Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar, displayed by the coup leaders.
The Coalition, however, demanded the immediate and unconditional release of President Bazoum, applauding the ECOWAS for its firm stance in support of democracy and the need to restore constitutional order in Niger Republic.
The Coalition also warned the junta not to plunge the sub-region into a needless and unwarranted conflict because of their selfish gain.
