Media reports indicate that President Mahama would be chairing his last ECOWAS meeting today.
But the election of a new chairman was not mentioned on the agenda.
President John Mahama was elected Chairman of the Economic Community of West African States and took over from his immediate neighbour and Ivorian President Allasane Ouattara who was elected on 17 February 2012.
He was elected during the 44th Ordinary Session of the ECOWAS Authority of Heads of State and Government in Yamoussoukro, Ivory Coast.
One of the key issues President John Mahama superintended over was the signing of the controversial Economic Partnership Agreement with the European Union.
