Le retrait du Burkina Faso, du Mali et du Niger de la CEDEAO a officiellement pris effet ce Mercredi 29 Janvier.

La CEDEAO a annoncé que les citoyens de ces trois pays continueraient à bénéficier des avantages liés à leur appartenance au bloc régional jusqu'à ce que les modalités d'un engagement futur avec les trois pays soient pleinement déterminées.

Au-delà de cela, WADEMOS souligne les implications sociales et économiques potentielles de la sortie pour les citoyens après la rupture formelle des liens entre la CEDEAO et ces trois pays.

100th Anniversary of Amílcar Cabral today. He stands out as 1 of the most profound jntellectuals & revolutionaries of the Pan-African movement, whose thinking resonate beyond the liberation of Guinea-Bissau & Cabo Verde. I shall continue my quest to disseminate his contributions.
