A daughter of deposed Niger’s president Mohamed Bazoum on Friday accused his predecessor of being the “mastermind” behind the military coup that toppled her father nine months ago.
“The hardest thing to accept was to discover that Mahamadou Issoufou was the mastermind who orchestrated everything out of egocentrism and to protect his personal interests,” Bazoum’s daughter Hinda Bazoum wrote in an article for Nigerien newspaper L’Autre Republicain. “He, who was close to our parents for 33 years and saw us grow up… he, my father’s friend and brother, is betraying him in the most cowardly and cruel way.”
