BREAKING: NIGER DECLARES NATIONWIDE WAR MOBILIZATION

BREAKING: Niger has taken one of the most drastic security steps in its modern history.

In a nationwide decree issued within 48 hours of U.S. airstrikes in northern Nigeria, Niger’s military government has ordered general mobilization — placing every citizen, resource, and asset under legal obligation to support the war effort.

This is not routine recruitment.
This is total-state mobilization.

As jihadist violence surges across the Sahel, with attacks nearing Niger’s capital and militant groups displaced by recent U.S. strikes, authorities in Niamey appear to be preparing for a prolonged, existential conflict — what AES leaders have ominously described as a coming “Black Winter.”

At the center of this crisis lies a fragile equation:

Rising cross-border militant movements

Africa’s longest oil pipeline under threat

Billions in Chinese investment at stake

And a regional alliance bracing for sustained instability

In this episode, we break down:
• Why Niger acted now
• What nationwide mobilization really means
• How U.S. airstrikes in Nigeria changed the regional balance
• Why oil infrastructure is now a strategic battlefield
• And whether mobilization can actually prevent state failure — or delay it

This is not speculation.
This is how escalation looks in real time.

Watch to the end for the key question no one can answer yet.
