The General Director of the Regulatory Body ARCEP has been recently removed in the wake of the current political crisis in Niger. Consequently, ongoing applications for Type Approval are experiencing significant delays. It is expected that a new Director will be appointed soon to ensure service continuity and Eleos is closely monitoring the situation to make further updates available.

A military coup happened last week and overthrew the President, driving the country into a political crisis. Eleos have been updated that at present, the ongoing events are not significantly affecting the operations at ARCEP, the regulatory authority. We are continually monitoring the situation and updates will be made available as soon as we are informed of.
