On a banner bearing a distorted image of President Bola Tinubu, demonstrators in the Niger Republic are shown in a contentious video that has been making the rounds online.
President Tinubu’s picture, which was on display and also serves as the head of the ECOWAS Authority of Heads of State and Government, was denoted with a cancellation sign.
Demonstrators scratched out “Bola” from the banner and replaced it with “Ebola,” renaming the Nigerian President in a noteworthy act of protest that was captured on film.

The demonstrators turned around and slammed the President Tinubu images on the banner.
This occurs while ECOWAS works to confront the coup that toppled President Mohamed Bazoum’s administration in Niger.
A delegation led by former Nigerian head of state General Abdulsalami Abubakar (Rtd) and including the Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar III, and the president of the ECOWAS Commission, H.E. Omar Alieu Touray, was reportedly sent to Niger by President Tinubu on Thursday.
In order to establish a definitive and peaceful conclusion in Niger, Tinubu advised the delegations to engage all parties intensely.
