The Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) Parliament was divided on how to respond to the coup in Niger.
While some Economic Community of West African States MPs supported military action against the Niger junta, others opposed it.
On Saturday, 22 legislators attended a virtual special meeting to examine the political crisis in the Niger Republic.
While some members of the parliament advocated for discussion and diplomacy, others urged action to halt the growth of military rule in the region.
