CONVERSATIONS :ECOWAS at the Crossroads: Regulator or Onlooker?
Update: 2025-12-28
Description
In this episode of CONVERSATIONS, Oiza sits with Confidence MacHarry, Senior Geopolitics Analyst at SBM Intelligence, for a timely and hard-hitting discussion on the state of democracy and security in West Africa.
Following the failed coup in Benin Republic and Nigeria’s swift intervention, ECOWAS declared a State of Emergency across the sub-region. But how effective has the regional body truly been in enforcing democratic values? Is ECOWAS leading with authority or reacting too late to unfolding crises?
This conversation examines Nigeria’s role as the region’s so-called “big brother,” the limits of regional power, and what decisive leadership should look like in an increasingly fragile West African landscape.
