List of political parties in Niger

This article lists political parties in Niger.

Before 2023, Niger had a multi-party political system, characterized by two to three dominant parties and several smaller ones that were often electorally successful enough to gain seats in the National Assembly. These smaller parties frequently formed electoral coalitions with more powerful parties, creating blocs both in government and in opposition.

However, since a military coup in 2023, Niger has been governed by a military junta led by General Abdourahamane Tchiani. In a significant escalation, all political parties were officially banned and dissolved by decree in March 2025. As a result, the country’s multi-party democratic framework has been dismantled, and political activity outside the control of the ruling junta is no longer permitted.
