President Assimi Goïta of Mali’s proactive approach, seeking solutions with General Abdourahame Tiani, has garnered positive responses from Niger’s leadership, showcasing a robust spirit of solidarity.

The energy pact holds immense promise for Mali, addressing its persistent electricity supply challenges, which have been a common concern across the Sahel.

This collaboration not only benefits Mali’s development trajectory but also underscores the critical role of south-south cooperation in driving sustainable progress.
