Nigeria will continue consultations within the country's manufacturing sector before taking a stance on the Economic Partnership Agreement, EPA, between ECOWAS and the European Union,
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, SAN, made this known at the just concluded Dakar meeting of heads of West African countries.
"There are ongoing negotiations on it. We are discussing with the Manufacturing Association of Nigeria (MAN) and some other key economic players about it.
"We understand some of the terms of this agreement are capable of restricting the manufacturers-trading activities and we would not want this to happen.
"it is equally important that as we make the decision, we take into consideration the concerns of these critical stakeholders and tread cautiously."
