He called on member states to worktowards meeting the implementation deadline of the single currency “Eco” which,he said, was already a threat to Western countries.
According to the Sierra Leoneanenvoy, West Africa is blessed with a lot of mineral, natural resources andhuman resources which, if effectively harnessed, will make the region a tradedestination for Western Countries.
Gembeh, however, urged relevantinstitutions of member states that play key roles on the implementation of thesingle currency to work towards meeting the 2020 deadline.
