Monrovia -Tuesday June 7, 2026; The Liberian Senate has with immediate effect summoned two (2) senior government officials to appear before its Committee of the Whole following public statements deemed disrespectful and derogatory toward the Senate.

During its regular sitting on Tuesday, June 7, 2026, the Senate Plenary unanimously agreed to summon the Director-General of the Civil Service Agency, Mr. Josiah Joekai, and the Director-General of the Rural and Renewable Energy Agency, Mr. Samuel Nagbe, to provide explanations regarding comments they allegedly made against the Liberian Senate.

The Senate decision follows a formal complains from Bomi County Senator Edwin M. Snowe Jr. requesting that the two Government officials appear to explain why they made derogatory statements against the Senate.

Accordingly, both officials are expected to appear before the Senate Committee of the Whole on Thursday, June 9, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. to clarify their respective statements and respond to concerns raised by members of the Senate.

The decision followed discussions among Senators, who emphasized the need to preserve the dignity and integrity of the Legislature while promoting mutual respect among the three branches of government.

Several Senators maintain that public officials have a responsibility to conduct themselves in a manner that upholds democratic values and strengthens confidence in state institutions.

Plenary noted that while freedom of expression remains a constitutional right, government officials are also expected to exercise restraint and professionalism in their public remarks, particularly when addressing constitutionally established institutions.

The Committee of the Whole hearing is expected to provide an opportunity for both Mr. Joekai and Mr. Nagbe to explain the context of their statements and respond to questions from Senators.

The outcome of the hearing could determine whether the Senate will take further actions or consider the matter resolved.

House Leadership Cites NEC Chairperson Over Missing Sinoe Elections Magistrate

The leadership of the House of Representatives has cited the Chairperson of the National Elections Commission (NEC) to appear before a leadership meeting following a formal communication submitted by Sinoe County Electoral District #3 Representative, Hon. Alex S. Noah.

The communication requested the indulgence of Plenary to invite the NEC Chairperson to provide an update on the whereabouts of Sinoe County's Senior Elections Magistrate, Mr. Solomon Jaryenneh, whose disappearance has raised growing concerns among citizens and lawmakers.

According to Representative Noah, reports from family members indicate that Mr. Jaryenneh's whereabouts have remained unknown since early April 2026. Family sources disclosed that the Senior Elections Magistrate had attended an NEC-organized workshop in Maryland County in late March 2026 and has not been seen since.

Hon. Noah noted that given the sensitive and critical responsibilities assigned to election officials, especially a Senior Elections Magistrate, the matter warrants immediate attention and urgent clarification from the National Elections Commission.

The communication further stressed that Mr. Jaryenneh's disappearance for nearly three months without any public update from NEC has become a source of concern for his family, residents of Sinoe County, and the general public.

Representative Noah questioned the efforts being undertaken by the Commission to locate Mr. Jaryenneh and expressed concern over what he described as a lack of communication regarding the matter.

Following deliberations, House leadership agreed to cite the NEC Chairperson to provide updates and clarify actions being taken concerning the case.

The House of Representatives remains committed to ensuring transparency, accountability, and addressing matters of national concern, particularly issues affecting public institutions and citizens.

The House of Representatives has endorsed the report of its Joint Committee and voted to ratify six international intellectual property protocols, conventions, and treaties aimed at strengthening innovation, protecting creators and inventors, advancing agricultural development, and promoting economic growth in Liberia.

The decision followed the presentation and consideration of a report from the Joint Committee on Commerce and Industry; Gender, Equity, Child Development and Social Services; Agriculture and Fisheries; Information, Broadcasting, Cultural Affairs and Tourism; Judiciary; and Foreign Affairs.

The House ratified the following international instruments:
1. The African Regional Intellectual Property Organization (ARIPO) Kampala Protocol on Voluntary Registration of Copyright and Related Rights, adopted in Kampala, Uganda, in 2021;
2. The African Regional Intellectual Property Organization (ARIPO) Arusha Protocol for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants, adopted in Arusha, Tanzania, on July 6, 2015;
3. The International Union for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants (UPOV) Convention for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants of December 2, 1961, as revised in Geneva on November 10, 1991;
4. The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) Treaty on Intellectual Property, Genetic Resources and Associated Traditional Knowledge, adopted in Geneva in May 2024;
5. The World Intellectual Property Organization Performances and Phonograms Treaty (WPPT), adopted in Geneva on December 20, 1996; and
6. The World Intellectual Property Organization Copyright Treaty (WCT), adopted in Geneva on December 20, 1996.

In its report, the Joint Committee emphasized that the ratification of these instruments would align Liberia with international best practices in intellectual property protection while enhancing opportunities for innovation, creativity, investment, and sustainable development.

The Committee further noted that the agreements would provide stronger protection for creators, artists, inventors, researchers, plant breeders, and holders of traditional knowledge, while fostering regional and international cooperation.

Presenting its recommendations, the Joint Committee urged plenary to ratify the protocols, conventions, and treaties, citing their potential to strengthen Liberia's intellectual property framework, support agricultural innovation, preserve indigenous knowledge, and stimulate economic growth.

The Committee concluded that the ratification of the instruments would significantly benefit the Republic of Liberia and contribute to national development by creating an enabling environment for innovation and creativity.

Following the reading and consideration of the report, members of the House of Representatives voted to ratify all six instruments.
The ratified protocols, conventions, and treaties have subsequently been forwarded to the Liberian Senate for concurrence in keeping with the legislative process.
