You're right, even the official data from Eurocontrol (who generally only publish data that they get from official agencies) puts it at 4.44 N, 8.25 W which is still out in the ocean.
I find a bit strange that some Internet sites tout this as a major airport in Liberia. It even appears in the CAA list of airport of that State yet no one appears to be able to pin point it on a map. Your own coordinates would (and those of others on the internet) squarely put it in the Ocean!! While often airports are clearly seen in Google Earth, there is no image of this one even when the imagery claims to be from 2013!! (the whole area is very poorly shown in Google Earth).
