Vice President Yemi Osinbajo will represent President Muhammadu Buhari at the 2nd extraordinary summit of the ECOWAS Authority of Heads of State and Government on the political situation in the Republic of Guinea.

This was disclosed on Thursday by Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Office of the Vice President, Mr Laolu Akande.

Osinbajo participated last week at the previous ECOWAS extraordinary summit on the political situation in Guinea and Mali.

The meeting held virtually on September 8.

The physical meeting taking place on Thursday will review the situation in Guinea in the light of the report of the ECOWAS high-level mission to Conakry.

The Vice President, who leaves Abuja this morning, would be accompanied by the Foreign Affairs Minister of State, Ambassador Zubairu Dada and is expected back in Abuja later on Thursday.
