“No Outsider Will Disrupt Africa’s Unity,” Tinubu Asserts in Ghana

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has said African countries will not allow outsiders to disrupt their unity.

Tinubu said this during John Mahama’s inauguration as the president of Ghana in Accra on Tuesday.

Recall that Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger Republic have exited Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS). They will cease to be members of the bloc between January and July 2025.

Speaking on development of the organisation, Tinuu said countries on the continent should continue to dialogue with each other even when there are disagreements.

He said, “Even when we disagree, we shall dialogue and discuss until we reach an agreement. Never, never shall we harm others and never allow any outsider to hurt us or disrupt the unity for which so many of our heroes gave their sweat, blood, and very lives to achieve.

The president further said African countries do not need to prove themselves to anyone but themselves.
He did, “This moment does more than symbolise another milestone in the evolution of Ghanaian democratic society. It lays to bed the question of whether Ghana and Africa are capable of democratic and productive endeavours.”

“We have found the critical path to our success. We shall lift our nations out of poverty and build a resilient economy at our own pace.”

“Today, I am here not only as the President of Nigeria but also as an African in resolute support for Ghana and her people. This moment is a source of pride and honour for you, the entire continent, and its diaspora.”

“The spirit of Ghana’s first President, Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah is here today, lifting that star higher and higher.”

“Just as Ghana draws inspiration and a well of strength from Kwame Nkrumah and many of its past leaders, Nigeria similarly draws inspiration from its founding leaders who not only fought for her independence but also cherished the close relationship between our two nations.”
