President Bola Tinubu has called on leaders of ECOWAS member states to resist unconstitutional changes of government.
The President made this known while addressing leaders of the regional bloc at the 68th Ordinary Session of the Authority of Heads of State and Government of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS)
Represented by Vice President Kashim Shettima, he stated that the evolving threats confronting West Africa required a united and coordinated regional response.
President Tinubu also stressed that West Africa’s increasingly porous borders made collective action unavoidable, noting that security threats did not respect national boundaries.
The President further stated that no member state, regardless of its size or capacity, could secure enduring stability on its own, emphasising the need for coordinated action.
President Tinubu reassured the regional bloc of Nigeria’s proven fidelity to the ideals of the ECOWAS Community and commitment to collective action in the defence of the region’s common future.
