Which of the following is not a problem facing Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS)?
Language barriers
Inadequate supply of labour
Production of the same commodities
Poor transportation and communication
Correct answer is B
Inadequate supply of labour is not a problem facing the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS).
ECOWAS is a regional economic community of 15 countries in West Africa. The countries in ECOWAS share a common goal of economic integration, and they have made significant progress in this area. However, there are still some challenges that the community faces, including language barriers, production of the same commodities, and poor transportation and communication.
Inadequate supply of labour is not one of the challenges facing ECOWAS. In fact, the region has a large and growing labor force. This is due to the high population growth rates in many of the ECOWAS countries. The labour force is also relatively young, which means that there is a large pool of potential workers.

The contribution of tertiary sector to national income is high
The population is decreasing
There is low labour supply

A country is described as developing if the income per head is low. A developing country is a country that is in the process of economic development. This means that the country is trying to increase its standard of living and improve the quality of life for its citizens.
One of the key indicators of a developing country is the income per head. This is the average income of a person in the country. If the income per head is low, it means that the standard of living in the country is also low.

Allow the importation of cheaper goods people want
Effectively safeguard newly established firms

Newly established firms in developing countries often face stiff competition from established foreign firms. Trade protection can help these new firms to compete by shielding them from some of the competition. This can give them time to grow and develop, and eventually become competitive on their own.

The median mark is the middle mark when the marks are arranged in ascending order. First, let's arrange the marks in ascending order: 5, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 9
Since there are 9 students, the median mark is the average of the 4th and 5th marks. The 4th mark is 7 and the 5th mark is also 7, so the median mark is 7.
Therefore, the answer is 7.
