Insurgency in ECOWAS: An Impediment to the Realization of Regional Integration
Keywords:
Insurgency, Impediment, RealizationAbstract
This article examines the ECOWAS protocols and particularly the plan for regional integration. It states that the right of free entry into member States has been impeded by insurgency, particularly by the nefarious and appalling acts of the Boko Haram fundamentalist Islamic group. The paper recommends that all Heads of States in ECOWAS must look into the root causes of insurgency in their States and deal with it and be more vigilant particularly in the area of cooperation so as to prevent the entry of the insurgent groups. Member States should also contribute to the ECOWAS fund.
