Tinubu was first elected Chairman of ECOWAS in Guinea-Bissau in July 2023, a few weeks after assuming office as Nigeria's President.
Tinubu was re-elected at the 65th Ordinary Session of the ECOWAS Authority of Heads of State and Government held at the Presidential Villa in Nigeria’s Abuja capital on Sunday, July 7, 2024.
The President's current tenure will elapse on Tuesday, July 9, 2024, one year after he took the leadership of the Community following his unanimous endorsement by Heads of State and Government at the 63rd Ordinary Session in Bissau, Guinea-Bissau capital, in 2023.
In his acceptance speech, Tinubu said, “I have accepted to continue to deliver on this service with the great men and women on this democratic journey, to serve our interest and build democratic values on the structure we inherited.”
