An upsurge of Boko Haram attacks has taken place since April 2016. In May and beginning of June, six Boko Haram attacks took place in the department of Bosso (including 2 against the IDP site and village of Yebi). On 3 June, hundreds of Boko Haram insurgents launched the deadliest attack against a military position in Bosso: 26 soldiers and 55 insurgents were killed and 112 wounded, according to the Niger Government. On 6 June, Boko Haram attacked Bosso for the second time, in three days. As a result, an additional 40,000 new displaced people fled to safer areas in the western part of Diffa region, leaving Bosso, Yebi and Toumour. The majority of the displaced people abandoned their livelihoods and are challenging increased vulnerability, together with their host communities. On June 16, the IDP site of Gagam was attacked, shortly after the passage of a high level mission and a distribution of food. 1 DISPLACEMENT CHAD ATTACKS/INCIDENTS 281,000 displaced people 116 in Diffa region attacks/incidents since 2015 N'Guigmi IDPs 167,000 35 attacks/incidents in 2016 Refugees 82,500 Lake Chad 50% Returnees 31,500 of 2016 attacks in Bosso Dept. 1.

    NIGER - DIFFA : Les incidents liés au groupe Boko Haram* (1 janvier au 31 août 2018) De janvier à août 2018, la situation sécuritaire dans la région de Diffa a été marquée par une augmentation des exactions des éléments du groupe armé non étatique Boko Haram (BH) et une baisse des victimes civiles liées à ces incidents comparativement à la même période l’année dernière (2017). Les mois de janvier et août 2018 ont enregistré le plus d’incidents (47/94 soit 50%). Les communes de Gueskerou, Bosso, Maine Soroa et Chetimari sont les plus touchées par les attaques du groupe BH (73/94 incidents soit 78%). Des attaques terroristes majeures ont été rapportées dans les localités bordant les berges de la Komadougou et les localités proches des îles du Lac Tchad. Le 4 juin, 3 kamikazes ont fait exploser leurs charges dans un quartier de la ville de Diffa tuant 6 civils. Trois (3) bases militaires ont été attaquées par les éléments du groupe BH respectivement les 17 janvier, 23 janvier et 1 juillet dans les localités de Toumour, Chétima Wangou (Chetimari) et Bilabrin (N’Guigmi) faisant des victimes dans les deux camps. Ces incidents et d’autres de nature criminelle (enlèvements, extorsions et menaces) sont à l’origine de mouvements de populations entre les différents sites et/ou villages.

  • Elections in Niger: Casting Ballots Or Casting Doubts?
    Elections in Niger: casting ballots or casting doubts? Given its centrality to the Sahel region, the international community needs Niger to remain a bulwark of stability. While recent data collected throughout the country shows an increase in motivation to participate in this month's election, doubts about the electoral process and concerns for longstanding development issues mar the enthusiasm. Birnin Gaouré, Dosso, December 2020 By Johannes Claes and Rida Lyammouri with Navanti staff Published in collaboration with Niger could see its first democratic transition since independence as the country heads to the polls for the presidential election on 27 December.1 Current President Mahamadou Issoufou has indicated he will respect his constitutionally mandated two-term limit of 10 years, passing the flag to his protégé, Mohamed Bazoum. Political instability looms, however, as Issoufou and Bazoum’s Nigerien Party for Democracy and Socialism (PNDS) and a coalition of opposition parties fail to agree on the rules of the game. Political inclusion and enhanced trust in the institutions governing Niger’s electoral process are key if the risk of political crisis is to be avoided. Niger’s central role in Western policymakers’ security and political agendas in the Sahel — coupled with its history of four successful coups in 1976, 1994, 1999, and 2010 — serve to caution Western governments that preserving stability through political inclusion should take top priority over clinging to a political candidate that best represents foreign interests.2 During a turbulent electoral year in the region, Western governments must focus on the long-term goals of stabilizing and legitimizing Niger’s political system as a means of ensuring an ally in security and migration matters — not the other way around.
