He noted that in spite of challenges like the COVID-19 pandemic, insecurity, and political tension in some countries, Kassi Brou and his team at the ECOWAS Commission “showed capacity and patience, and dealt with all the issues.” 

President Buhari hoped that Brou’s successor would study what made him succeed, for the good of the sub-regional body. 

The exiting ECOWAS Commission President thanked the Nigerian leader for the support given in the past four years, “particularly at the time of great challenges like COVID-19, and political instability in some West African countries.” 

He also lauded all ECOWAS leaders, as well as Nigerian Ministers who made his tour of duty a successful one.
