Vanguard: The military regimes in Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger yesterday announced their immediate withdrawal from the Economic Community of West African States, ECOWAS, saying it had become a threat to member states.
The Guardian: The West African regional bloc, ECOWAS, for the first time since its existence, witnessed an abrupt pull out of three countries at the same time yesterday, as Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger announced their exit.

Daily Trust: The Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) Sunday said it was ready for “a negotiated solution” after Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger quit the sub-regional body. The military juntas in the three countries had, earlier yesterday, announced their withdrawal from the ECOWAS with immediate effect.
