Executive Mansion, Monrovia - President Joseph Nyuma Boakai Sr., has honored two senior members of the Diplomatic and Consular Corps and Development Partners whose assignments in Liberia are expected to conclude in 2026.

The recognition took place on Friday, February 20, 2026, during the New Year’s Reception hosted by the President in honor of members of the Diplomatic and Consular Corps and Development Partners at the Executive Mansion.

During the ceremony, President Boakai paid tribute through Foreign Affairs Minister Sarah Beysolow Nyanti to Ambassador Josephine Nkrumah, Resident Representative of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) to Liberia, and Ambassador Comfort Lamptey, Country Representative of UN Women in Liberia, for their distinguished service and contributions to national development.

President Boakai expressed profound appreciation, on behalf of the Government and People of Liberia, for the diplomats’ partnership, dedication, and support to Liberia’s peace, governance, and development agenda.  “I thank you for working with us. We are sincerely grateful for your support,” the President stated.
