Hello,

I'm sorry, your clarification of the question was not visible to me
when I posted my answer for some reason, would you like me to have my
answer removed and let someone else try? Please let me know how you
would like me to proceed.

South Africa is not in ECOWAS

My guess is that there is no guideline that could possibly be helpful
to you. ECOWAS is too big an area; Pay scales vary widely from country
to country in West Africa. And even within a certain country, pay
varies widely dependent on the type of organization. An NA for a
foreign embassy would likely make many times that of an NA for a local
Internet cafe.

In any case, if an advanced English speaker is very important, you
would probably do well to narrow your search to the English-speaking
countries of ECOWAS - Nigeria, Ghana, Liberia, and Sierra Leone.
