In June 2025, regional ijtemas were held by Lajna Imaillah and Nasirat-ul-Ahmadiyya Niger. Due to the current security challenges in Niger, it was deemed impossible to gather members from all regions in one central location. Hence, it was decided to replace the national ijtema with regional ones. This approach not only ensured the safety of participants but also allowed a greater number of members to participate locally.
Each regional ijtema was scheduled according to local circumstances, with the cooperation of regional missionaries, local missionaries and local presidents of Lajna Imaillah.
The primary objective of these ijtemas was to familiarise members with the teachings of the Jamaat and to strengthen their bond with Khilafat-e-Ahmadiyya. These events featured both academic and sports competitions. A syllabus for academic competitions was prepared and distributed to all regions in advance.In total, 12 regional ijtemas were held across 10 regions, including Niamey, Guidan Roumdji, Gaya, Dosso, Madaoua, Guidan Roumdji East, Birni N Konni, Dogondoutchi, Tessaoua and Dakoro. In total, 888 members of Lajna Imaillah and 442 members of Nasirat-ul-Ahmadiyya attended. Alhamdulillah, all ijtemas were held successfully and peacefully.
