Coup d'etat: Ecowas suspends mali

The Economic Community Of West African States (ECOWAS), a regional group of sixteen countries, with a mission to promote economic integration among its states, today suspended Mali from all decision making, pending when the military junta returns the country to democracy. The African Union (AU) already suspended Mali last week. 

You will all recall that Malian soldiers went on state TV last week Thursday March 22nd to declare that they had suspended the nation’s constitution and seized power in a coup after the government failed to quell a nomad-led rebellion in the north. www.mannastores.com
