Mr Jonathan, who is the ECOWAS Special Envoy to Mali, had earlier visited Mali twice in the last one month.
This time, he is undertaking a monitoring and follow up mission to engage stakeholders on the implementation of the roadmap decided by the Authority of ECOWAS Heads of State and Government which detailed measures to end the protracted political crisis and restore peace in the country.
On Monday he observed the inauguration of the nation’s reconstituted nine-member constitutional court in Bamako which is described as a key recommendation by ECOWAS leaders as a means of moving the country forward. Another recommendation which has been implemented was the appointment of ministers of six key ministries to partially constitute the cabinet.
Mr Jonathan, who has been leading the ECOWAS mediation mission to Mali, also on Monday night met with some civil society members shortly after he visited populist imam Mahmoud Dicko, who is seen to have links to those behind anti-government protests, in his house in Bamako. The former President is scheduled to continue his consultations on Tuesday by meeting different stakeholders and members of the international community.
“We know some issues are still pending that are yet to be concluded. We know that before people go on demonstrations, there must be some challenges. These have to be resolved. On behalf of ECOWAS we appeal to the people of Mali to stop further demonstrations and embrace dialogue.
