ECOWAS: Nigeria Threatens To Exit Union Over Unfair Treatment

Lawmakers representing Nigeria at the ECOWAS Parliament have threatened to withdraw their membership.

This they said was because there was a breach of a resolution passed by the parliament to suspend all recruitment processes and other irregularities.

This is coming following the allegations of a lopsided recruitment exercise at the ECOWAS Parliament which were allegedly skewed to serve the personal interest of member states excluding Nigeria.

The Deputy Speaker, Nigeria House of Representatives, Idris Wase, who is also the first Deputy Speaker of the ECOWAS Parliament told journalists that it has become imperative that Nigeria review its relevance and membership of the bloc.
