Ekweremadu to ecowas dont send troops to gambia

It appears you're referring to a news article or statement made by Ike Ekweremadu, a Nigerian politician, urging ECOWAS (Economic Community of West African States) not to send troops to Gambia.

For context, in 2016, Gambia's then-President Yahya Jammeh refused to step down after losing an election, leading to a political crisis. ECOWAS, along with other international organizations, threatened to intervene militarily to restore democracy and ensure a peaceful transfer of power.

Ike Ekweremadu, who was the Deputy President of the Senate of Nigeria at the time, expressed concerns about the potential consequences of military intervention in Gambia. He argued that it could lead to further instability, loss of lives, and damage to the country's infrastructure.

In his statement, Ekweremadu emphasized the importance of finding a peaceful and diplomatic solution to the crisis, rather than resorting to military force. He also highlighted the need for ECOWAS to consider the potential consequences of its actions and to explore alternative options for resolving the crisis.

It's worth noting that ultimately, ECOWAS did not send troops to Gambia, and instead, a coalition of West African leaders, led by Ghana's President John Mahama, negotiated a peaceful resolution to the crisis. Jammeh eventually stepped down, and Adama Barrow was inaugurated as the new President of Gambia.

I hope this provides some context to your question!
