The Nigerien Foreign Ministry has canceled nearly 1,000 diplomatic passports issued to citizens of Niger and other countries due to their expiration, the Nigerien Press Agency (ANP) reported Thursday. The ministry has announced the cancellation of over 992 diplomatic passports, including over 368 diplomatic passports issued to former ministers, lawmakers and other officials, the report said. As many as 50 of the 368 diplomatic passports had been issued to foreign nationals, reports said. ANP reported in early September that Niger's foreign ministry canceled the diplomatic passports of several officials appointed by the country's previous authorities, including the prime minister and the foreign minister. The western African nation has been ruled by the military after an elite guard force deposed Nigerien President Mohamed Bazoum in late July, prompting the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) to threaten a military intervention.
