Sierra Leone’s President Leads ECOWAS Mission to Stabilize Guinea-Bissau
Sierra Leone’s President, Dr. Julius Maada Bio, led a high-level ECOWAS mission to Guinea-Bissau, engaging with the country’s High Military Command in a bid to stabilize the nation. The visit follows the 68th ECOWAS Summit communiqué, which called for a short transition led by an inclusive government reflecting Guinea-Bissau’s diverse political and societal spectrum.
According to President Maada Bio, discussions with Major-General Horta Inta-a and the military command were constructive, with ECOWAS reiterating its call for a transitional government that includes all stakeholders. The mission aimed to promote stability and democratic governance in Guinea-Bissau, a key objective of ECOWAS.
President Maada Bio was joined by Senegal’s President Bassirou Diomaye Faye and ECOWAS Commission President Dr. Omar Alieu Touray on the mission. The delegation’s visit underscores ECOWAS’ commitment to resolving Guinea-Bissau’s political challenges.
