The Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) and the Nigerian Government have strongly condemned the coup d’état that took place in the Republic of Guinea Conakry on Sunday.

President Nana Akufo-Addo of Ghana and Nigeria’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Geoffrey Onyeama, condemned the action in separate statements made available to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Sunday in Abuja.

They described the action as a clear violation of the ECOWAS Protocol on Democracy and Good Governance, demanding the immediate return to constitutional order.

Akufo-Addo, who is also the Chair of the Authority of ECOWAS Heads of State and Government, said ECOWAS demands the immediate and unconditional release of President Alpha Condé, as well as others, arrested.

“ECOWAS notes with great concern the recent political developments which occurred in Conakry, Republic of Guinea. She condemns with the greatest firmness this coup attempt on Sunday, September 5, 2021.

Onyeama also stated that: “The Government of Nigeria strongly condemns and rejects any unconstitutional change of government.

Following the gun battles, soldiers who call themselves the National Committee for Reconciliation and Development, appeared on TV, claiming to have dissolved the Conde-led government, taking overpower.

Conde’s third term Presidency had earlier sparked violent and mass protest in the country after a disputed election in October 2020 and a new constitution in March 2020 which allowed him to sidestep the country’s two-term limit. (NAN)

    We would also like to convey that most individuals who find themselves devoid of health insurance can be students, self-employed and people who are laid-off. More than half of the uninsured are really under the age of Thirty-five. They do not come to feel they are wanting health insurance since they’re young and healthy. The income is frequently spent on real estate, food, in addition to entertainment. Many people that do go to work either 100 or part time are not offered insurance by way of their work so they go without because of the rising cost of health insurance in america. Thanks for the suggestions you discuss through this website.
