The international condemnation of the recent overthrow of leaders in Niger and Gabon has been juxtaposed with celebrations at home. These coups mark the ninth government deposed on the African continent since 2020. As such, there is a pressing need to consider whether there are common factors driving these takeovers, or if they are isolated incidents. Looking forward, what could be anticipated in the coming year?

Laura Kyle is joined by a panel of guests to discuss these developments, including Alexis Akwagyiram, Managing Editor at the news website, Semafor Africa; Kabir Adamu, Managing Director at Beacon Consulting, a security risk management and intelligence provider in Nigeria and the Sahel region; and Moussa Kondo, Executive Director of the Sahel Institute and formerly special adviser to the current interim president of Mali, Assimi Goita.
