Lomé, the capital of Togo, is hosting a high-level two-day meeting on the monitoring and evaluation of the ECOWAS Regulation C/REG.21/12/17 on Roaming on Public Mobile Communications Networks. The session, which began on August 20, 2025, coincides with the 18th meeting of the Roaming Focal Points.
The hybrid gathering brings together focal points from the National Regulatory Authorities of ECOWAS Member States, representatives from the West African Telecommunications Regulators’ Assembly (WATRA), officials from the ECOWAS Commission’s Directorate of Digital Economy and Postal Services, as well as delegates from UEMOA, the ECOWAS National Office in Togo, and major mobile network operators across the region.
The discussions are focused on evaluating progress, strengthening collaboration among member states, and ensuring the full implementation of the regional roaming regulation, which aims to make cross-border communication within West Africa more seamless and affordable.
