Akpabio spoke while declaring open the 2024 First Ordinary Session of the ECOWAS Parliament, at the National Assembly, yesterday, in Abuja. In his goodwill message, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Abbas Tajudeen, who was represented by Deputy Speaker, Benjamin Kalu, noted that despite the numerous challenges confronting the sub-region, “the ECOWAS Parliament remains strong, resolute and committed in upholding the ideals of democratic governance, economic integration, peace and security.”
THE ECOWAS President stressed that the countries’ exit would also affect the operationalisation of the ECOWAS standby force that member states’ defence ministers agreed to activate, as well as the Accra Initiative and the Multinational Joint Taskforce. Touray asserted: “Citizens of these countries may no longer be able to reside or freely create businesses within the facilities established by ECOWAS and may be subject to various national laws.”
