Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has asked leaders of the Economic Community of West African States, ECOWAS, to work assiduously in tackling poverty and high unemployment among youth.<\/p>\nHe also charged them to invest in education, innovation and skill acquisition while promoting peace and inclusion.<\/p>\n
The President stated these on Tuesday in Accra, Ghana, during the official launch of the ECOWAS Golden Jubilee.<\/p>\n
Represented by Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Bianca Odumegwu-Ojukwu, the president who said ECOWAS was a bold vision created by its founding fathers on May 28, 1975, noted the vision had crystallised.<\/p>\n
He said that it was for that reason that the member states and their people were celebrating 50 years of progress, unity and resilience while rekindling the flame of solidarity that had guided the region through triumphs and trials.<\/p>\n
He congratulated the President of the Republic of Ghana, John Dramani Mahama, saying that his visionary leadership, unwavering dedication, and steadfast commitment to regional integration and development ideals had been a source of inspiration and strength.<\/p>\n
\u201cUnder your stewardship, Ghana remains a beacon of democratic governance, economic progress, and regional solidarity.<\/p>\n
\u201cYour efforts in championing the upliftment of our dear region through diplomacy, collaboration, and transformative policies deserve our most profound appreciation and admiration,\u201d President Tinubu said.<\/p>\n
He also commended the tireless efforts and unwavering dedication of the ECOWAS Commission staff, noting that their professionalism, commitment, and collaborative spirit were instrumental in making the day\u2019s event a resounding success.<\/p>\n
He further highlighted the achievements of the subregional organization in past especially in peacekeeping and promoting democratic governance.<\/p>\n
Part of President Tinubu\u2019s speech read: \u201cFive decades ago, our founding fathers from 15 nations envisioned regional economic integration, cooperation, and shared prosperity.<\/p>\n
\u201cFrom the ashes of colonialism and the turbulence of post-independence struggles, they forged ECOWAS\u2014a beacon of hope for our people. Their dream was not merely to dissolve borders but to build bridges of trade, cultural exchange, and mutual progress.<\/p>\n
\u201cFrom the original Treaty of Lagos in 1975 to this momentous gathering here in Accra, ECOWAS has remained a pillar of integration and a beacon of hope for over 400 million citizens across our region.<\/p>\n
\u201cRemarkably, our journey over the past five decades has not been without challenges. We have faced political instability, economic hardship, infrastructural deficits, and security threats. But we remain undaunted.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe shall not relent in our commitment to a united, peaceful, purposeful, and prosperous West Africa.<\/p>\n
\u201cYour Excellencies and Distinguished Guests,<\/p>\n
\u201cToday, we celebrate numerous remarkable achievements that distinguish ECOWAS as the most successful regional economic community on the African continent.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have established one of Africa\u2019s most vibrant free trade areas in five decades, fostering intra-regional commerce and lifting millions from poverty.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have championed peace through ECOMOG\u2019s valiant efforts, mediating conflicts in Liberia, Sierra Leone and The Gambia.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have introduced the ECOWAS passport, symbolising our commitment to free movement.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have also advanced democratic norms, standing firm against tyranny and supporting transitions to constitutional governance.<\/p>\n
\u201cHowever, the journey toward a truly united and prosperous region is far from over. We must confront the hard truths of our present reality.<\/p>\n
\u201cDespite our shared vision, too many of our citizens still live in poverty, too many of our children lack access to quality education, and too many of our youth remain unemployed, disillusioned, or forced to seek opportunities abroad.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur region continues to grapple with new and evolving threats \u2014 violent extremism, climate change and food insecurity. The wave of unconstitutional changes in our region seriously threatens the democratic gains we have painstakingly built.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs the current Chair of ECOWAS, I reaffirm Nigeria\u2019s unwavering commitment to the fundamental principles that bind us: democracy, the rule of law, good governance, and regional solidarity.<\/p>\n
\u201cThese are not just ideals; they are the foundations for peace, development, and the dignity of our people.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn this new chapter, we must reimagine ECOWAS as not just a Community of States but a Community of People.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe must place our young, dynamic, creative, and resilient people at the centre of our agenda.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe must invest in education, innovation, and skills development to unleash the full potential of Africa\u2019s future. We must seek to expand the frontiers of democracy.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe must limit the forays of unconstitutional rule into the democratic space. We must always seek peace towards achieving the collaborations needed for development.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe must also deepen our economic cooperation, support intra-regional trade, and ensure that the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) becomes a vehicle for genuine transformation. A prosperous West Africa is good for Africa and the world.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn deepening our integration, we must accelerate the realisation of a single currency and strengthen infrastructure corridors to connect markets and minds.<\/p>\n
Your Excellencies, Ladies and gentlemen,<\/p>\n
Let us use this Jubilee as a moment of renewal. Let us rededicate ourselves to the spirit of Pan-Africanism that inspired our founders. Let us build an ECOWAS that is more resilient, more inclusive, and more responsive to the needs of our people.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis moment calls for a renewed commitment to fostering unity and solidarity among Member States. It is a time to strengthen the bonds that tie us together through shared values, collective responsibility, and a common vision for a prosperous region.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn hopes of reconciliation and reintegration, we must remain open and willing to engage in sustained, constructive dialogue with our estranged brothers, those Member States currently outside our fold.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt the same time, there is an urgent need to implement bold, comprehensive reforms that will enhance our institutions\u2019 effectiveness, relevance, and credibility to meet the challenges of today and the future.<\/p>\n
\u201cBy embracing these imperatives, the organisation can better respond to its people\u2019s evolving needs and advance sustainable development, stability, and prosperity across the region.\u201d<\/p>\n
Concluding, the President declared that a tree does not stand alone in the forest, hence the need for unity of purpose and collaboration.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur strength lies in our unity. As a proud member, Nigeria pledges to collaborate with every nation\u2014large or small\u2014to build an ECOWAS that is resilient to confront the challenges of our time.<\/p>\n
\u201cMay the next 50 years be etched in history as an era when West Africa rose\u2014united, prosperous, and unstoppable,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n
