Hon. Ikpea congratulates Tinubu on his re-election as Ecowas chair
A Chieftain of the All Progressives Congress APC in Edo State and former Edo State Oil and Gas commissioner, Hon. Joseph Igiagbe Ikpea, has congratulated President Bola Tinubu, on his re-election as the chairman of the Economic Community of West African States(ECOWAS).
Tinubu was first elected as ECOWAS chairman on July 9, 2023, and was re-elected during the 65th Ordinary Session of the ECOWAS Authority of Heads of State and Government at the Presidential Villa in Abuja on Sunday.
In a statement on Monday he personally signed and made available to Newsmen, the APC Chieftain said Tinubu’s re-election into the ECOWAS chairmanship was a testament to his commitment to the growth and development of the sub-region.
“In the past one year, the President has demonstrated good leadership in uniting members of ECOWAS, especially during the leadership instability that characterised some member states,” the statement read in part.
He expressed delight that member states of ECOWAS unanimously re-elected Nigeria’s President to the position, stressing that it was a confirmation of their trust and confidence in him.
