Kwara State Governor, Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq, has said that the ECOWAS Community Court system has the potential to encourage the concept of one market and free trade among the 15 member countries that are members of the regional body.

Speaking at the opening ceremony of the one-week sensitization mission of the ECOWAS Community Court of Justice in Ilorin on Tuesday, the governor said that entrenchment of the rule of law was indispensable in the quest for deepening the regional political and economic ties of member states of ECOWAS.

“Collectively, these countries comprise an area of over 5 million square kilometres and currently have an estimated population of over 418 million. It is, therefore, imperative that the ECOWAS Court of Justice continues to play a significant role in cementing the legal regime for the development of the ECOWAS region through its adjudicatory mandate in the settlement of disputes.
