General Abdourahamane Tiani was sworn in as president of Niger on March 26, 2025, under the Charter of Refoundation, the country found itself at the precipice of a new political era. Tiani’s rise to power wasn’t just about assuming the highest office; it was about discarding the very structures that had once defined Niger’s political system. The Charter of Refoundation doesn’t merely adjust or amend the old constitution — it obliterates it, replacing it with a document that aligns closely with Tiani’s vision for Niger’s future. In a single stroke, the democratic framework that had been in place for decades has been replaced by a military-led government, one whose future remains both uncertain and deeply consequential for the country’s trajectory.
