According to the communiqué of the Senegalese government, Wade denounced the low capacity of the budget of the organisation despite the important resources put at its disposal.The Senegalese President expressed the belief 'this is due to the deficiency of the ECOWAS Commission in the conception and execution of development projects'.
He underscored the failure in the management of the organisation, notably concerning human resources, the communiqué indicated.
