Ezekwesili calls for tracing of weapon manufacturers linked to terrorists

Former Vice President of World Bank (Africa Region), Oby Ezekwesili, has stated that the manufacturers of the weapons used by terrorists in Nigeria and other African countries can be traced, wondering why they have not been held accountable.

Ezekwesili stated this in Abuja on Thursday, at the African Conference organised by the School of Politics, Policy and Governance (SPPG).

She also called for more policies and programmes that would strengthen democracy in the country and continent while stressing that democracy can only thrive if the electoral system is transparent with competent leaders to tackle the social and economic challenges faced in the continent.
