The Nigerien Party for Self-Government ( French : Parti Nigérien pour l'Autogestion-Al'ouma , abbreviation: PNA-Al'ouma ) is a political party in Niger .

history

The Conservative Party was founded on February 2, 1997 under the leadership of Sanoussi Jackou . Jackou, who counts Hausa and Tuareg among his ancestors, had previously been expelled from the CDS-Rahama party, which he also co-founded , because he worked against the party line with the regime of President Ibrahim Baré Maïnassara . Soon after the PNA-Al'ouma party was founded, Jackou moved to the opposition camp against Baré Maïnassara. The PNA-Al'ouma succeeded in entering the national assembly when it ran in the parliamentary elections of 2004 in an electoral alliance with the PNDS-Tarayya . The PNA-Al'ouma received a seat in the National Assembly, which was occupied by party leader Jackou. Officially allied with the opposition party PNDS-Tarayya, the PNA-Al'ouma also supported President Mamadou Tandja in his internal power struggle in the ruling party MNSD-Nassara . When President Tandja sought a third term in office that was not provided for in the constitution, this was initially rejected by Sanoussi Jackou, then supported after the opposition camp had weakened. Mamadou Tandja turned the parliament and left - after confirming his third term by the constitutional referendum of 2009 - the parliamentary elections of 2009 held, which were boycotted by most of the major opposition parties. The PNA-Al'ouma ran, this time without being a member of an electoral alliance, and again won a seat in the National Assembly. Since the overthrow of Mamadou Tandja by Salou Djibo in February 2010 and the parliamentary elections in 2011 , the Nigerien Self-Government Party is no longer represented in the National Assembly. As part of a government reshuffle, President Mahamadou Issoufou appointed aviation expert Rakiatou Kaffa-Jackou , member of the PNA-Al'ouma and daughter of the party founder, as Minister for Industrial Development.
