Making references to diverse measures of these concept, he used those of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), CEBR, Legatum and Forbe, the author showed that ECOWAS Member States are generally lowly placed at the bottom of the ladder in terms of human development, prosperity and happiness, hence the need for ECOWAS Intervention based on the ECOWAS Treaty as revised.
