 Niger Replaces French with Hausa as National Language

The charter also recognizes nine other local languages, including Zarma-Songhay, Fula, and Kanuri.


This language shift follows a broader move by the junta, led by General Abdourahamane Tiani, to sever ties with France since the July 2023 coup. Similar actions have been seen in neighboring Mali and Burkina Faso.
