Mali's PM Soumeylow Boubeye Maiga resigns

 In a statement, President Ibrahim Boubacar Keita’s office said the President accepts the resignation of



the prime minister and that of the members of government. 

 On Wednesday, legislators had discussed a possible motion of no confidence in the government because of last month's massacre and failure to disarm militias. Last month, some 160 Fulani herders were killed by an ethnic vigilante group.
