Union for Democracy and Republic – Wikipedia

The Union for democracy and republic ( French Union for Democracy and the Tabbath Republic , Abbreviation: Udr-Tabbat ) is a political party in Niger.

The Union for Democracy and Republic was created in September 1999 under the leadership of Amadou Boubacar Cissé as a split from the Alliance for Democracy and Progress (RDP-Jama’a). Until then, Cissé had been the deputy party leader of the RDP-Jama’a. ^[first]

In the 2004 parliamentary elections, the UDR Abbat managed to enter the National Assembly in a election alliance listed by the Nigrical Party for Democracy and Socialism (PNDS-Tarayya). The 2009 parliamentary elections were boycotted by the UDR Abbat as by the larger opposition parties in protest against President Mamadou Tandja. ^[2] The party was one of the loudest opponents of Tandjas, which was overturned in 2010 in a coup d’état. ^[first] Amadou Boubacar Cissé ran in the 2011 presidential election, in which he received 1.6% of the vote. From the 2011 parliamentary elections, the UDR Abbat was represented in the National Assembly with six out of 113 seats. ^[2] In the same year, the party merged with 32 other political parties and groups in an alliance that agreed and agreed to support the government of the newly elected President Mahamadou Issoufou (Pnds-Tarayya) in their projects. ^[3] In the 2016 parliamentary elections, the UDR Abbat won two out of 171 seats in the National Assembly. ^[4] In the 2016 presidential election, Amadou Boubacar Cissé Ninth became fifteen candidates. ^[5]

As a result of the parliamentary elections of 2020, the party is no longer represented in the National Assembly. ^[6] Amadou Boubacar Cissé became 27th out of 30 applicants for the highest office in the state in the presidential election of 2020. ^[7]
