The statement also raised concerns about what it termed the systematic harassment of the Minority Caucus, including attempts to remove the Minority Leader from the ECOWAS Parliament and his referral to the Privileges Committee for attending to official duties. On youth unemployment, the Minority warned that the presence of about 1.3 million young people outside education, employment, or training constitutes a national security threat.
