Recall that Nigerian leader’s emergence was announced at the 63rd Ordinary Session of the Authority of Heads of State and Government of ECOWAS in Guinea Bissau on Sunday.

In a congratulatory message, the National Director General of APC Professionals Council, Amb. Seyi Bamigbade said this is the beginning of fresh focus and a renewed direction for ECOWAS, expressing hope that the Nigerian President will galvanize the strength of the regional body to pursue a common agenda that will enhance its security, and economic prosperity.

“We are hopeful that as a democratic, His Excellency, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu will lead this great body to harness its numerous potentials that will undoubtedly be for the good of individual member countries and the region as a whole”, Bamigbade stated.
