She’s at the middle former president of Liberia? Let me know please 🙏 thank you.
That is a good question! Yes, that would be her in the middle, if that is her, but while I understand she is in her 80s now, she has changed a lot! I would not have recognized her if I just saw a picture with no mention of who she is
