Popular coup, unpopular intervention
The poll, conducted by mobile phone and balanced in each country by age and sex, finds that in Ivory Coast, Ghana and Nigeria about 60% of respondents think the coup in Niger was justified. In Mali, where a ruling military junta has applauded the coup, fully 78% of respondents approve of it.
The governments of Ivory Coast, Ghana and Nigeria all talk tough in favour of intervention, yet around 60% of respondents in each of those countries oppose the idea. Many say they fear it could spark a wider regional war. Even economic sanctions against Niger are divisive. Malians heavily oppose them. But so do 58% of Ivorians, while Ghanaians are almost evenly split. Nigerians narrowly approve of them.
