Several other organizations formed among Frenchspeaking West African states, including a monetary union; most of them did not achieve regional integration but rather strengthened ties with France. The initial move toward the formation of ECOWAS was reignited by (then) Lieutenant Gowon of Nigeria and General Eyadéma of Togo, with the signing of a Nigeria-Togo agreement to form a West African Economic Community.
