He was elected chairman at the 63rd Ordinary Session of the regional bloc held on Sunday afternoon in Bissau, the capital of Guinea-Bissau.
Speaking, Tinubu stressed, “We will not allow coup after coup in Africa again.
“We will take democracy seriously with African Union and extend the same to the European Union including Britain and America.
