President Bola Tinubu has appealed to African leaders to respect democracy and rule of law in a bid to ensure political stability in the continent.
President made this appeal on Saturday, July 15, while speaking at a high-level event organized by the United Nations Development Programme on the margins of Fifth Mid-Year African Union Coordination Meeting in Nairobi, Kenya.
Represented by Adamu Lamuwa, permanent secretary of the ministry of foreign affairs, the chairman of the ECOWAS said “deliberate” measures must be taken to put a stop to military interruption of democratic governments.
“This ugly trend has only succeeded in threatening the peace, security and stability of the sub-region and by extension the African continent, leaving in its trail poverty, internally-displaced persons and humanitarian crisis.
In the same vein, this ugly trend has also led to food shortages and escalated health challenges.
