“Pursuant to the communiqué of the Extraordinary Session of the ECOWAS Mediation and Security Council, I engaged in a constructive discussion with the military leadership of Guinea-Bissau,” he wrote.
Bio reaffirmed ECOWAS’s firm stance on democratic governance, adding that the bloc remains committed to ensuring the full return of constitutional order.
