President Muhammadu Buhari has arrived in Accra, Ghana for the 59th ordinary summit of Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS).
He was received by officials of Nigeria’s High Commission in Ghana.
The Summit is chaired by Ghanaian President, Nana Akufo-Addo while President of African Development Bank (AfDB), Akinwumi Adesina is also at the Summit.
The Presidency earlier in a statement on Friday announced that President Buhari will be joining other Heads of State of Government of ECOWAS for the mid-year statutory meeting of the regional bloc, with the exception of Mali, which was recently suspended from the group.
Goodluck Jonathan, former President of Nigeria, who is ECOWAS Special Envoy, and Mediator to Mali is also at the event and expected to present a report on his latest working visit to the West African country to the summit of the Heads of State.
President Buhari is expected to make a presentation on how to tackle insecurity in West Africa at the summit. He will return to Nigeria at the end of the summit, later today.
