He said â€œIn Ouagadougou, ECOWAS leaders are expected to adopt a priority action plan on counter-terrorism and put in place a mechanism to monitor the implementation of the measures adopted towards ensuring lasting peace in the sub-region,â€

President Buhari would be accompanied by Abubakar Bello, Dapo Abiodun and Okezie Ikpeazu â€“ governors of Niger, Ogun and Abia states respectively.

Other members on the entourage include the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Geoffrey Onyeama, Minister of Defence, Bashir Magashi, National Security Adviser, Maj.-Gen. Babagana Monguno (retd) and Director-General, National Intelligence Agency, Amb. Ahmed Abubakar.
