Niger, planet's 4th uranium producer and poorest country

Niger, which holds elections on Sunday, is an arid uranium-rich nation south of the Sahara that faces repeated famines. President Mahamadou Issoufou, who was elected in 2011, is running for a fresh mandate against 14 candidates. Uranium is the country's leading export, and Niger ranks fourth among global producers after Kazakhstan, Canada and Australia.
