'we Must Bring Security Back To West Africa': Sierra Leone's Bio

In an interview with FRANCE 24 on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York, Julius Maada Bio, the president of Sierra Leone and chairman of ECOWAS, stressed that Africa was not represented fairly in the UN when "70 percent of the decisions of the issues before the Security Council are mostly about Africa". Asked about the three military-run countries that left ECOWAS back in January, he said he was "engaging each and every one of them", in order to bring security back to West Africa and boost economic integration.
