The Party of the Masses for Labor ( French : Parti des Masses pour le Travail-Albarka , abbreviation: PMT-Albarka ) is a political party in Niger .

history

The PMT-Albarka was founded on June 8, 1992. The party was created through the merger of the Labor Liberation Party (PLT-ALbarka) and the Union of the Masses for Democratic Action (UMAD-Aïki), both of which were approved by the Ministry of the Interior on February 15, 1991. The first party leader of the PMT-Albarka was Idi Ango Omar , the former PLT-Albarka leader. The new party played a marginal role in the course of the democratization of Niger - the first multi-party elections since the country's independence took place in 1993.

When Ibrahim Baré Maïnassara deposed the democratically elected President Mahamane Ousmane in a military coup in 1996 and was himself elected head of state in the controversial presidential elections of 1996 , Idi Ango Omar joined the new ruler. He became Minister of the Interior in the government formed on August 23, 1996. The parliamentary elections of 1996 were boycotted by the major opposition parties. The PMT-Albarka succeeded in entering the National Assembly for the first time , where the party won two of 83 seats. In the new government formed on December 1, 1997, Idi Ango Omar became Minister of Agriculture and Livestock with the rank of Minister of State. President Baré Maïnassara and his government were overthrown in another military coup in 1999. The military handed power over to Mamadou Tandja , a politician from the MNSD-Nassara party, who was elected in the 1999 presidential election . In the parliamentary elections of 1999 , in which the opposition participated again, the PMT-Albarka lost its seats in the National Assembly. There was a change at the top of the party. Abdoulkarim Mamalo took over the office of chairman from Idi Ango Omar.

President Mamadou Tandja tried to secure a controversial third term in office by means of the constitutional referendum in 2009 . The parliamentary elections of 2009 were then boycotted by the major opposition parties and the PMT-Albarka moved into the National Assembly again with a member. However, Tandja was overthrown in a military coup in 2010. In the parliamentary elections of 2011 , the PMT-Albarka failed to get back into the National Assembly. The party supported the MNSD Nassara candidate Seini Oumarou in the 2011 presidential elections , but Mahamadou Issoufou of the PNDS Tarayya had to admit defeat.
