Former President Goodluck Jonathan is expected to lead a team of ECOWAS envoys to Mali for talks following the recent coup in the country.
According to a member of the new junta and an ECOWAS source, the leaders are expected to arrive in the West African country on Saturday.
The source described the mission to Bamako as aiming “to help the search for solutions,” days after mutinying soldiers took over power in Mali.
“We will receive the ECOWAS delegation with pleasure… it is important to talk to our brothers,” a junta official in the country told AFP on Friday.
