The Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) has condemned the plan by some individuals to create unrest in Sierra Leone.
ECOWAS condemned the plot while reacting to the discovery of a plan by some individuals to import arms to the country.
In a statement issued recently in Abuja, the sub-regional body reiterated its support for Sierra Leone’s government in its efforts at sustaining democracy in the country.
Earlier, the government declared a 24-hour curfew to prevent the breakdown of law and order in the country.
The statement read: “The bloc has learnt, with utter disgust, a plot by certain individuals to acquire arms and disturb the peace and constitutional order in Sierra Leone.
“ECOWAS condemns this act and calls for the arrest and prosecution of everyone involved in the illegality.
“The bloc has always maintained its zero-tolerance for unconstitutional change of government.
“We want to reaffirm our commitment to supporting the government and the people of Sierra Leone’s quest to deepen democracy and good governance by consolidating peace and security so as to foster socio-economic development.”
