The ECOWAS mediation team sent to Liberia to address the ongoing impasse in the House of Representatives has been unable to break the deadlock.

Led by the Speaker of the ECOWAS Parliament, Honorable Hadja Memounatou Ibrahima, the mission took place from November 11 to 16, 2024, and involved extensive negotiations with key stakeholders, including members of the “Majority” and “Minority” blocs in the House. Despite the concerted efforts of the delegation, no agreement was reached during their time in Monrovia.

The stalemate persists as the pro-Koffa and anti-Koffa factions remain entrenched in their positions, with neither side willing to compromise to resolve the crisis.
