Vice President Yemi Osinbajo today left Abuja to represent President Muhammadu Buhari at the second Extraordinary Summit of the ECOWAS Authority of Heads of State and Government on the political situation in the Republic of Guinea.

The sub-regional leaders also called for the immediate and unconditional release of President Alpha Conde and other others besides immediate restoration of constitutional order in the country and dispatch of a high-level mission to assess the situation.

Today’s physical meeting is reviewing the state of affairs in light of the report of the ECOWAS team to Conakry.
