It was the latest threat to Niger\u2019s electoral process, even in a nation armed heavily by the U.S.&nbsp; and it was the second round of a presidential poll in which the current president has agreed to step down after two terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">A senior defense official has called the region \u201can alphabet soup of bad actors\u201d. Among them, he named the Islamic State of the Greater Sahara, Jama\u2019at Nusrat al Islam wal Muslimeen \u2014 a coalition of four groups, including the Saharan branch of al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, and Al Mourabitoun and Ansaroul Islam in Burkina Faso.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">The incident was just one in a surge of violent incidents that left more than 5,000 dead in the Sahel over the last five months, an increase of 46 per cent on the same period a year earlier, according to the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project, which is partly funded by the US State Dept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">Only 7.4 million people of the country&#8217;s population of roughly 23 million are eligible by age to vote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">Niger may be at the heart of international counter-terrorism strategies for the region but questions have emerged about a U.S. base built by the U.S. Air Force after a scathing report by the Defense Department\u2019s Inspector General&nbsp; (IG).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">According to the report published in&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/airforcemag.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">airforcemag.com<\/a>, the Air Force and U.S. Africa Command skirted Congressional oversight, didn\u2019t adequately complete a site survey, and didn\u2019t meet safety requirements in building a new operating base in Niger, leading to extended delays, cost overruns, and possibly unsafe conditions for personnel at the $100 million Air Base 201, located in the Agadez region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">\u201cThe base was not constructed to meet safety, security, and other technical requirements. For example, the base\u2019s perimeter fence was not up to standards, requiring a waiver, and the runway\u2019s solar airfield lighting did not conform to requirements that it provide continuous lighting,\u201d according to the report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">Creating further embarrassment for the military, two drones were lost last year and a U.S. Army MQ-1C Gray Eagle with a live Hell fire missile was downed in northern Niger in January.&nbsp; A photo of the Gray Eagle conducting an emergency landing appeared in The&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/Aviationist.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Aviationist.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">Both AFRICOM and AFAFRICA have disagreed with most of the IG report\u2019s findings. But the base was recently considered for closing by the Pentagon to reduce the US military presence in Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">Meanwhile, the ruling party candidate, Mohamed Bazoum, a former foreign and interior minister, is considered a front runner after getting 40% of the vote in the first round. His rival is former president Mahamane Ousmane who got 17% in the first round and is being backed by several minor parties. It is not clear where they stand on the U.S. military operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By Lisa Vives\/ GIN <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Africa Global News Publication <\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(AGN) The country that drew worldwide attention over a now debunked U.S. theory linking Saddam Hussein with the purchase of \u201cyellowcake\u201d uranium powder is in the spotlight again.
