The last time Liberia hosted an ECOWAS meeting of such nature was in 2017, during the administration of former President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf; the first of a series of important ECOWAS meetings, ahead of the 51 Ordinary Session of the Authority of Heads of State and Government of the Community, on 4 June 2017.
