Economic Commission for Africa: The eighth session of the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA), held on February 13–25, 1967, in Lagos, Nigeria, was attended by 29 African states, five associate members, 27 observers, and representatives of United Nations organs and other organizations. The Chairman, A. A. Ayida (Nigeria), stated that Botswana, Gambia, and Lesotho, after accession to independence, were now full members of the Commission. Following the report of the Executive Secretary on the measures taken in pursuance of a Commission resolution on the participation of the peoples of Angola, Mozambique, Portuguese Guinea, and South West Africa in the work of the Commission ECA unanimously adopted a resolution which recommended that the Organization of African Unity (OAU) designate the representatives of the territories concerned and inform the secretariat accordingly.
