The Patriotic Movement for the Republic (French: Mouvement Patriotique pour la Republique, MPR-Jamhuriya) was a political party in Niger.

History

[edit]

The party was launched on 11 October 2015 as a breakaway from the National Movement for the Development of Society.[3][4]

It did not nominate a presidential candidate for the 2016 general elections, but received 7% of the vote in the National Assembly elections, winning thirteen seats and becoming the fourth-largest party in parliament.[5]
