Wealth and income inequalities in West Africa are staggering. West Africa houses three of the ten wealthiest countries in Africa.
In 2017, wealth held by individuals in West Africa’s wealthiest economy, Nigeria, exceeded US$250 billion. Individual wealth held by the second largest economy in the sub-region, Ghana, exceeds US$60bn.
A large part of this wealth is derived from natural resources. The inequities in the distribution of this wealth are stark.

1. We should engage the ECOWAS Court more 'cos they seem more proactive in ruling on cases than our local courts.
2. We should do an audit of existing draconian laws and disseminate same widely, for greater public awareness.

@MartObono - Through the civic litigation of the Twitter Ban, We are making a statement to govt that it is not constitutionally empowered to switch off and switch on citizens' rights to expression arbitrarily, without consequences.
Martin Obono (@martobono)- The rationale for the continuous challenge of the TwitterBan by CSOs, even after the Ban had been lifted, is that govt must be made to account for the economic losses of citizens who transacted their business on the social media.
- The media is constrained by several govt. regulators hence, media practitioners are unable to exercise freedom of expression.
- CSOs must carry their media partners along at every stage of their activism so they can disseminate the correct information to the populace.

Chidi Odinkalu - "NGO s are already governed by a set of principles
- CSOs must set a constituency of foot soldiers to help drive home their demands
- We must raise funds and empower ourselves to lobby the National Assembly to effect the amendments to CAMA, which we seek."
Peter Otabo - "CSOs must synergize and come up with unified consensus to deliver the required punch in the push for the amendment of the CAMA"
