THE ECOWAS AND THE MANAGEMENT OF INTEGRATION IN THE WEST AFRICAN SUB-REGION : 1985 – 2005.
ABSTRACT
The founding fathers of the ECOWAS were very fundamentally clear as to the primary
objectives of the over 40-year old regional body, yet despite this mission clarity, and the
‘numerous efforts’ and strategies put in place, the ECOWAS is replete with several
examples of failures or ‘mere near successes’ in the integration process. The lofty dreams
of creating an ECOWAS of people against an ECOWAS of states have over the last three
or four decades remained largely elusive. This study titled – An Evaluative Study of the
ECOWAS Coalition and the Management of Regional Integration in West Africa – 1985 –
2005, represents a modest attempt at appraising the difficulties faced by the integration
process, more so, in terms of the creation of one unified economic entity, with the soul
objective of improving the life of West Africans. Salient issues such as those bordering on
regional security, governance crises, and institutional incompetence have been noted as
fundamental impediments in the process of West African regional integration. The study
has also extensively deployed varied techniques and methodologies such as questionnaire
administration on a sampled population amongst borderland communities in Nigeria and
Niger Republic. Questionnaires were also administered on other more informed citizens
of the Community. In addition, notably recognized individuals vital to some aspects of the
integration processes were also sampled for interview. Empirical observations coupled
with other sources of secondary data were also extensively utilized in the effort to more
closely appreciate other ECOWAS integration dynamics, factors such as those of neocolonization
and challenges of regional insecurity amongst others. In terms analysis of
data, frequencies and simple percentages were portrayed in tabulated forms and from
these, the study was able to draw its own conclusions and in some cases the study was able
to positively reinforce other scholarly opinions. In concluding our study, we noted that
the process of ECOWAS integration especially in the economic sphere has just began,
adding that Nigeria being the leading regional economy by way of recommendation ought
to re-establish its leadership position in all aspects of ECOWAS unification and for
ECOWAS to achieve its lofty objectives the study further recommended an elaborate
involvement of the general citizenry, the informal sector of the economy and very
importantly the organized private sector. The study found it strongly expedient to
recommend the facilitation and promotion of a second monetary zone in order to ease
negotiation with the CFA Zone as a step towards the emergence of one single currency.
