The Regional Observatory of Onion in West and Central Africa, ORO/WCA, has confirmed that the five Nigerian onion trucks detained on Tuesday at Kotoku Market in Ghana have been released.
The release followed the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS)’s order, averting an impending diplomatic row between Nigeria and Ghana.
This came as the group called for a lasting regional framework to prevent future trade disruptions.
In a statement made available to Vanguard on Saturday, President of ORO/WCA, Aliyu Maitasamu, said the affected trucks were released and allowed to offload their consignments on Friday.
