Authorities have confirmed the death of George Solo, former Chairman of the Congress for Democratic Change (CDC), who passed away on Friday, April 24, during a flight from Casablanca to New York. The Liberian politician was reportedly traveling to the United States to seek medical treatment for an undisclosed illness.

The incident occurred aboard Royal Air Maroc Flight AT200. According to fellow passengers, Mr. Solo showed signs of severe physical distress while in transit at the Casablanca airport. Samuel Dahn, a passenger who befriended Solo during the layover, noted that the former chairman appeared to be struggling with respiratory issues and physical exhaustion long before boarding.

Mr. Dahn, who assisted Solo through the boarding process, described the politician as being in a fragile state but determined to reach his destination.

"He was struggling to breathe and sweating heavily," Dahn said. "I spoke with him at the gate, and despite his condition, he insisted he was okay. He mentioned he was heading to Minneapolis for 'real help,' referring to the medical care he hoped to receive in the U.S."

Witnesses stated that Solo’s health deteriorated rapidly approximately mid-way through the seven-hour journey over the Atlantic Ocean. As he became increasingly restless and incoherent, cabin crew issued an emergency call for medical professionals.

Two physicians on board—an obstetrician and a private practitioner—responded to the call. The medical team initially suspected complications related to severe diabetes and attempted to stabilize him. Despite the administration of emergency medication and nearly an hour of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), Mr. Solo remained unresponsive.

The flight crew eventually pronounced him dead while the aircraft was still in international airspace. To maintain the dignity of the deceased and the privacy of other passengers, Solo’s body was moved to a restricted area at the rear of the aircraft for the remainder of the flight.

Upon landing at John F. Kennedy International Airport, the aircraft was met by port authorities and medical examiners. Passengers were held on board for approximately one hour while security officials conducted a preliminary investigation into the circumstances of the death.

The news of Solo’s passing has sparked a wave of tributes within the Liberian community. Known for his once-vibrant role in the country’s political landscape, his sudden death has left many in shock.

The incident has raised questions regarding airport screening protocols in Casablanca. Witnesses observed that Solo was visibly unwell prior to boarding, leading to calls for better situational awareness and medical intervention training for ground staff at international transit hubs.

Mr. Solo’s family and colleagues have been notified. At this time, funeral arrangements have not been made public, and the official cause of death remains subject to a medical examiner's report.

Prominent political figures and former government officials have issued a sharp rebuke of the Liberia National Police (LNP) following reports of excessive force during the "Jobs and Justice" protest held on April 14, 2026.

The demonstrations, organized by the Student Unification Party (SUP) and various civil society groups, were met with a security response that many observers have labeled as disproportionate and reminiscent of the country's turbulent past.

Former Minister of Mines and Energy, Wilmot Paye, criticized the police action, noting that state-sponsored violence against students is never justifiable. In a formal statement, Paye drew parallels between Tuesday’s events and historical instances of civil unrest in 1984, 1986, and 2001.

Paye argued that aggressive policing creates unnecessary national tension, which could deter foreign investment and destabilize the country during a period of regional uncertainty.

"The police should stop creating sensations and tensions that have the potential to scare people away from the country," Paye stated, specifically citing the ongoing presence of Guinean troops on Liberian soil as a reason for the government to prioritize national unity over internal conflict.

The Acting National Chairman of the Congress for Democratic Change (CDC), Janga Augustus Kowo, also condemned the images of the crackdown, describing the use of force as "despicable" and "barbaric."
Kowo emphasized that the right to peaceful protest and dissent is firmly protected under the Liberian Constitution. He warned that such actions threaten the country's democratic progress.

"Liberia will never be a one-party state again," Kowo remarked, calling the police response a "disgraceful" departure from modern democratic standards.

Beyond the primary political opposition, other notable Liberians have joined the call for accountability:

Human Rights Advocates: Several prominent lawyers have called for an independent investigation into the LNP’s tactics, citing international standards for crowd control.

Religious Leaders: Members of the Liberian Council of Churches expressed "grave concern" over the safety of the youth, urging the government to engage in dialogue rather than physical confrontation.

Civil Society Groups: Leaders of the National Civil Society Council of Liberia reminded the administration that the "dark days" of the civil war started with the suppression of student movements, urging the Ministry of Justice to intervene.

A heated legal debate has erupted in the capital following a request by the Inspector General of Police to have Representative Yekeh Kolubah removed from office. The controversy centers on whether a lawmaker can be expelled for criminal allegations before being convicted in a court of law.

Cllr. Tiawan Saye Gongloe, a prominent human rights lawyer and former Solicitor General, issued a sharp critique of the move. He argues that the police and the House of Representatives are overstepping their legal boundaries.

According to Cllr. Gongloe, "treason" is a criminal matter that belongs in a courtroom, not a political chamber. He maintains that if the government believes a crime has been committed, the correct path is to arrest and prosecute the individual.

"The Legislature is not a criminal court," Gongloe stated. He warned that using political power to remove a representative for a crime—without a trial—threatens the separation of powers and sets a "dangerous precedent." Gongloe also highlighted the importance of free speech, noting that even controversial statements by politicians should not be automatically treated as crimes.

In a direct rebuttal, Representative Sumo Mulbah, a public policy specialist, defended the Legislature’s right to discipline its own members.
Rep. Mulbah pointed to Article 38 of the 1986 Constitution, which allows the House to create its own rules and expel members for "disorderly behavior" if two-thirds of the members agree. He argued that expulsion is an internal disciplinary tool used to protect the dignity of the House, which is separate from a criminal trial.

Mulbah also defended the Inspector General’s right to petition the House. He stated that law enforcement has a duty to alert the Legislature when a member’s conduct might threaten national security. In his view, the House has the constitutional authority to act on such reports to maintain public order.

To resolve the tension, Cllr. Gongloe has proposed that President Joseph Boakai establish an independent commission of inquiry. This commission would investigate the claims made by Rep. Kolubah regarding national borders and the Makona River.

Gongloe believes a formal report would clarify the facts and prevent the government from substituting "power for law." For now, the nation waits to see if the House will move forward with expulsion or if the matter will transition to the judicial system.

14/04/2026

Internal disagreements within Liberia’s former ruling party, the Congress for Democratic Change (CDC), are once again drawing attention, following recent remarks by Deputy Speaker Thomas Fallah suggesting that former President George Weah should not contest the 2029 presidential elections.

Speaking Monday on OK FM’s Morning Rush show, Hon. Fallah voiced concern about what he described as elite control within the CDC. He urged Mr. Weah to step back from active politics and focus on his family, arguing that the party’s current leadership has failed to uphold truthfulness and loyalty.

“The elites have hijacked the CDC,” Fallah said. “My sincere advice is that President Weah takes time to rest. Those controlling the party today are not honest with him and will not fulfill the promises they make.”

Fallah further expressed sympathy for younger members of the CDC who, he said, continue to devote energy to a leadership disconnected from their aspirations. “Sadly,” he added, “their efforts do not match the true intentions of those at the top.”

He went on to predict that the CDC headquarters, currently under construction, would “become a law firm in the future” and confirmed that action would be taken regarding opposition lawmaker Yekeh Kolubah.

The comments immediately sparked reactions from senior CDC figures, including former Monrovia City Mayor Jefferson T. Koijee, who delivered a fiery rebuttal on social media. Koijee accused Fallah of betraying the party and aligning with President Joseph Boakai’s administration.

“Deputy Speaker Thomas Fallah, you have been expelled,” Koijee wrote. “You now dance for the same forces that once opposed the struggle you claimed to believe in. Tell your new master, Mr. Boakai, that no alliance or propaganda can stand against the will of the Liberian people.”

Drawing comparisons to Hungary’s recent political changes, Koijee warned that no elite coalition could overturn the mandate of the people once Liberians decide through the ballot. He argued that the ruling Unity Party would face defeat in 2029, and that the CDC, under George Weah’s leadership, remains “the living heartbeat of the Blue Revolution.”

“Movements born from ordinary people never die from whispers or predictions,” Koijee said. “President Weah remains ordained by God to redeem Liberia.”

Adding to the chorus of reactions, former Nimba County Representative Garrison Doldeh Yealue Jr. released a statement describing Fallah’s advice as hypocritical. Yealue questioned the timing of Fallah’s sudden criticism, noting that he had been part of the CDC leadership for decades.

“It is ironic for someone who enjoyed power for 21 years to tell a man who served only nine years to retire,” Yealue wrote. “You benefited from the roof built by Weah, yet you now advise him to step aside.”

Yealue defended the current CDC leadership as committed and resilient, arguing that departures like Fallah’s represent healthy transitions rather than internal fractures. He dismissed Fallah’s suggestion about the party headquarters becoming a law firm, calling it “a humorous fantasy,” and insisted that the CDC remains united and ready for the next political contest.

“The CDC is stronger today because the chaff has been blown away,” Yealue said. “President George M. Weah will rise again. The sun does not need permission to rise.”

Analysts say the exchange highlights deepening divisions within the formerly ruling party, which continues to redefine its role in national politics after losing power in 2023. While some members advocate for reform and renewal, others maintain unwavering loyalty to Mr. Weah’s leadership and vision for a political comeback.

The controversy underscores challenges facing Liberia’s opposition landscape ahead of the 2029 elections, where the CDC is expected to remain a major contender despite recent internal turbulence.

29/03/2026

The Center for Transparency and Accountability in Liberia (CENTAL) has expressed deep concern over President Joseph Nyuma Boakai’s decision to accept the resignation of Cllr. Finley Y. Karngar, Chairperson of the Office of the Ombudsman, without enforcing punitive measures recommended by investigators.

According to CENTAL’s Executive Director, Anderson D. Miamen, the president’s action undermines the nation’s fight against corruption and weakens public confidence in Liberia’s system of accountability. Miamen noted that by accepting Karngar’s resignation rather than implementing the findings of an official investigation—which called for dismissal and potential criminal prosecution—the presidency sends what he described as a “troubling signal” about its commitment to transparency and integrity.

Cllr. Karngar’s resignation followed allegations that he sought financial benefits from his Special Assistant, reportedly requesting mobile phone scratch cards valued between US$30 and US$35, along with a portion of the assistant’s salary. The investigative report also cited misconduct contrary to the National Code of Conduct, which the Ombudsman’s office is mandated to uphold.

CENTAL further pointed out that this is not the first time Karngar has faced allegations of impropriety, recalling earlier reports suggesting he received kickbacks from a landlord leasing property to his office. The organization argued that such conduct erodes trust in anti-corruption institutions and demands firm and transparent action.

In light of these concerns, CENTAL has called on the Liberian government to fully implement the investigation’s recommendations, including restitution, administrative sanctions, and criminal prosecution where appropriate. The group also urged the Liberia Anti-Corruption Commission (LACC) to assume jurisdiction over the case and keep the public informed about the status of ongoing investigations.

15/03/2026

The death of the wife of economist and political commentator Samuel Jackson has gripped Liberia, igniting grief, speculation, and a fierce debate about how far journalists should go when covering active criminal matters. At the center of that debate is Peter Quaqua, President of the West African Journalists Association, whose recent essay urges reporters to exercise restraint in such coverage.

Quaqua describes the case as a profound human tragedy and warns that aggressive interviews with individuals identified by police as “persons of interest” risk creating a “trial by interview” long before any court has weighed the evidence. In his view, journalists must not allow their platforms to become parallel investigations that might compromise the integrity of official inquiries. The duty of the press, he argues, is to inform the public, not to behave as investigators, prosecutors, or judges.

He also notes that when individuals step into the public arena—through media interviews or emotional outbursts on social media—they inevitably invite public scrutiny. That exposure, he cautions, can complicate both personal and legal situations, particularly when emotions, speculation, and unverified claims begin to shape the narrative. For Quaqua, moments like this call for professional restraint as “the highest form of responsibility.”

Alexander L. Redd, a Liberian journalist, theologian, and counselor, challenges the practical effect of Quaqua’s appeal. While he acknowledges Quaqua’s stature in the media, Redd argues that dressing restraint in ethical language risks encouraging the press to step back precisely when the public most needs it to step forward. What sounds like professional caution, he suggests, can easily become “censorship with good manners.”

Redd invokes Liberia’s recent history to underscore the danger of a muted press. Under Samuel Doe’s government, journalists who asked hard questions about state abuses were silenced, intimidated, or jailed. During the civil war, the absence of persistent and independent reporting allowed atrocities to unfold largely undocumented. It was only when outlets such as The Daily Observer and The Inquirer pushed forward—often at risk to journalists and their institutions—that a public record of those abuses began to emerge. That legacy, Redd insists, was built not on stepping back, but on pressing harder.

Redd also confronts Quaqua’s confidence that “proper processes of investigation” and “the rule of law” will ultimately deliver the truth. That expectation, he argues, presumes institutions that are consistently strong, independent, and insulated from political pressure. Liberia is still building such institutions, and its justice system has often required public scrutiny and civic pressure to function at all.

In that context, asking journalists to remain on the sidelines while investigations unfold risks transforming the press from watchdog into spectator. For Redd, telling reporters to wait quietly while the machinery of justice turns is akin to asking the watchdog to stay in the yard while the house is on fire.

Beneath the disagreement lies a core question: What is journalism for in moments of tragedy and controversy? Quaqua emphasizes the need to protect due process and avoid prejudging individuals in the court of public opinion. Redd stresses journalism’s role in holding power to account and ensuring the public’s right to know, even when police have opened a case and courts are yet to act.

Redd contends that a reporter who asks hard, fair, evidence-based questions of a person of interest is not playing prosecutor, but fulfilling a democratic duty. The remedy for sensational or reckless crime coverage, he argues, is not less reporting, but better reporting—disciplined questioning, verified information, balanced framing, and clear context.

“The press that polices itself into passivity does not protect justice,” he writes. “It protects those who have the most to lose from the truth.”

The exchange between Quaqua and Redd is more than a professional disagreement; it captures a defining tension for Liberia’s media in a fragile democracy. Can the press be both cautious about prejudicing legal processes and uncompromising in its pursuit of transparency and accountability?

Liberia’s most respected journalists earned their reputations by stepping forward when doing so had real costs. As the Jackson case continues to unfold under intense public scrutiny, Liberia’s newsrooms now face a familiar, sharpened choice: lean toward restraint, or toward robust, responsible scrutiny that keeps the public interest—rather than institutional comfort—at the center of their work.

14/03/2026

The administration of President Joseph Nyumah Boakai is facing sharp criticism following a series of territorial incursions and controversial domestic land policies. Isaac W. Jackson Jr., Liberia’s former Permanent Representative to the International Maritime Organization (IMO), has issued a scathing assessment of the current leadership, characterizing the government’s recent actions as a surrender of national sovereignty and an assault on the country’s most vulnerable citizens.

The critique follows a volatile confrontation in Foya, Lofa County, where Guinean military personnel reportedly crossed the border into Liberian territory. Eyewitness accounts suggest the foreign troops lowered the Liberian colors to hoist the Guinean flag, leading to violent clashes with local youth.

Mr. Jackson contends that this breach of sovereignty was emboldened by earlier administration decisions. He specifically pointed to the extradition of individuals fleeing the Guinean military junta—including Ibrahima Khalil Cherif—as a dangerous precedent.

"President Boakai was among the first to compromise the territorial integrity of Liberia by allowing leaders of a military junta to retrieve individuals from our soil," Jackson stated, suggesting that the acceptance of logistical gifts from the junta in the aftermath of the handover sent a message of weakness to regional neighbors.

Domestically, the administration is embroiled in a heated dispute regarding the acquisition of private land for military use. The former diplomat highlighted a growing trend of property demolitions, which he argues disproportionately affects impoverished Liberians.

The controversy has been exacerbated by the President’s recent rhetoric, in which he suggested that the military possesses a superior understanding of land boundaries. Jackson challenged this logic, questioning why, if the military’s expertise is so profound, they were not effectively stationed to prevent the Foya border incursion.

“If the military understands Liberia’s boundaries so well, that knowledge should be used to defend the nation's borders—not to justify the seizure of land from vulnerable citizens,” Jackson argued.

The crux of the opposition’s argument rests on Section 5.2(d) of the Land Rights Act of 2018. The Act was designed as a legal safeguard to ensure that property owners receive just and fair compensation before any government-sanctioned displacement occurs.

Jackson alleges that the administration, and private entities emboldened by the President’s stance, are bypassing these legal requirements. He characterized the current trajectory as an elevation of military interests over civilian rights—a shift he warns is the hallmark of "creeping dictatorship."

Citing concerns over the President’s physical fitness for office and his perceived inability to defend the constitution, Jackson joined a growing chorus calling for the President to vacate his office. He noted that a nation cannot achieve stability through the destruction of its citizens' homes, asserting that housing remains a fundamental human right that the state is obligated to protect.

12/03/2026

A stark warning about Liberia's economic landscape has emerged from prominent economist Samuel P. Jackson, who has drawn attention to what he describes as the overwhelming foreign control of the country's commercial sector.

In a recent social media commentary that has sparked widespread discussion among Liberians, Jackson presented figures suggesting that foreign nationals and businesses maintain substantial dominance over Liberia's retail and commercial infrastructure, particularly in the capital city's prime business districts.

According to Jackson's assessment, the Fula community operates approximately 100,000 businesses across the country, while Lebanese entrepreneurs control around 4,300 commercial enterprises. He further cited the presence of 200 Indian companies and 3,500 Indian nationals engaged in various business activities. Perhaps most striking, Jackson claimed that all 15 supermarkets located on Tubman Boulevard—Monrovia's primary commercial thoroughfare—operate under foreign ownership.

"Poverty lives and thrives in us," Jackson concluded, suggesting that the absence of Liberian ownership in these key commercial sectors reflects deeper structural challenges within the national economy.

The economist, who holds a Master's degree in Cities from the London School of Economics and has served in various advisory capacities including Chief Economist for the Republic of Liberia National Economic Dialogue in 2019, has established a reputation for provocative economic analysis.

The observations touch on a sensitive issue in Liberian society. Under the Investment Act of 2010, foreign investors are permitted to establish wholly-owned businesses in Liberia, though certain sectors—including retail sale of rice and cement, gas station operations, and sale of used clothing—are legally reserved exclusively for Liberian citizens.

The law also establishes minimum capital investment thresholds for foreign ownership in specific business categories. For enterprises owned exclusively by non-Liberians, total capital investment must reach at least $300,000 in designated sectors.

Economic data from recent years shows Liberia has experienced fluctuations in foreign direct investment, which dropped from $960 million in 2022 to $746.7 million in 2024, according to budget analysis reports.

The dominance of Lebanese and Indian entrepreneurs in West African retail and wholesale trade is not unique to Liberia, reflecting historical migration and commercial patterns throughout the region. These communities have established extensive business networks spanning multiple generations.

Jackson's comments have reignited longstanding debates about economic empowerment, wealth distribution, and the role of indigenous entrepreneurship in Liberia's development. Critics of current economic policies argue that insufficient access to capital, limited business training opportunities, and infrastructural challenges prevent Liberian entrepreneurs from competing effectively in their own marketplace.

However, defenders of Liberia's open investment policies contend that foreign capital and business expertise contribute essential employment opportunities, tax revenues, and consumer goods access in an economy still rebuilding from years of civil conflict that ended in 2003.

The Liberia Investment Act mandates that investment policies should promote job creation, technology transfer, and economic growth while protecting the rights of both investors and citizens. How to balance these objectives with calls for greater Liberian ownership of commercial assets remains a central question in the nation's economic discourse.

As Liberia continues its development trajectory under President Joseph Boakai's administration, the tension between attracting foreign investment and fostering domestic entrepreneurship represents one of the country's most complex policy challenges.

Jackson's commentary arrives at a moment when economic anxiety remains high among ordinary Liberians, many of whom struggle with unemployment and rising living costs in an economy where formal sector opportunities remain limited.

01/03/2026

A vocal member of the Congress for Democratic Change has issued a blistering critique of President Joseph Nyuma Boakai's administration, questioning whether the Unity Party-led government has delivered on its 2023 campaign pledges to rescue Liberians from economic hardship.

Fredrick Wesseh, a young CDC partisan, published a statement accusing the current administration of failing to translate campaign rhetoric into tangible improvements for ordinary citizens, despite inheriting power with what he described as "the hopes, struggles, and future of the generation."

"Liberians are not living better. They are suffering more," Wesseh wrote in his assessment of the government's performance since taking office in January 2024.

His critique comes amid a complex economic picture in Liberia. While official government data and international financial institutions have reported macroeconomic improvements—including inflation declining to approximately 4 percent by late 2025 and economic growth reaching 5.1 percent—opposition voices contend that these statistics do not reflect conditions on the ground for average Liberians.

Wesseh's statement highlighted persistent challenges including rising consumer prices, unemployment, and what he characterized as a disconnect between political leadership and public suffering. "Markets are crying. Youth are frustrated. The nation is tired," he argued, suggesting that the administration's "rescue mission" has become "abandonment."

The CDC activist also raised concerns about governance issues beyond economics. His statement alluded to perceptions of selective justice and political targeting, arguing that "once fairness is questioned, trust collapses," though he did not provide specific examples.

The opposition criticism reflects ongoing political tensions between the ruling Unity Party and the CDC, which held power under former President George Weah from 2018 to 2024. In Liberia's 2023 election—the closest runoff in the country's electoral history—Boakai defeated Weah by fewer than 21,000 votes.

According to performance monitoring by civil society organizations, the Boakai administration tracked 126 campaign promises in its first year, with 5 completed, 80 ongoing, 22 not started, and 19 lacking sufficient information for assessment.

In his January 2026 State of the Nation Address, President Boakai defended his government's economic record, citing controlled inflation, increased foreign reserves rising from $475 million to $576 million, and export growth of 31 percent. The president projected 2.5 percent GDP growth for 2026 and an average of 6 percent annually through 2028.

However, critics like Wesseh maintain that macroeconomic indicators have not translated into improved living conditions for most Liberians. His statement concluded that the government "was not ready to lead," pointing to what he described as "slow action, weak leadership, and growing arrogance."

The Congress for Democratic Change remains Liberia's main opposition party and continues to challenge government policies while navigating its own internal disputes and legal battles, including a controversial headquarters eviction in 2025.

As Liberia approaches the midpoint of Boakai's term, the debate between government claims of economic progress and opposition assertions of continued hardship reflects broader questions about how development gains reach ordinary citizens in post-conflict societies.

25/02/2026

In a scathing public indictment of the current football establishment, prominent female football stakeholder and Shaita Angels owner, Benita Whitney Urey, has leveled serious allegations of manipulation, financial withholding, and "dictatorial" behavior against Liberia Football Association (LFA) President Mustapha Raji.

The controversy, which has sent shockwaves through the local sporting community, marks a definitive bridge-burning between Urey and the incumbent leadership as the race for football governance intensifies.

Urey, who once moved freely within the LFA’s upper echelons as a supporter of the Raji administration, claims she is now being systematically targeted for switching her allegiance to opposition candidate Cassell Kuoh.

According to Urey, her transition from an insider to a "match-fixer" and "enemy" in the eyes of the LFA is a direct result of her refusal to be "used as a toy" for the current president's agenda. She specifically cited a lack of due process in recent disciplinary actions against her.

"Raji and his people have resorted to banning me from football without having any evidence or just cause," Urey stated, characterizing the move as a desperate attempt to silence dissent.

A central pillar of the dispute involves the financial sustainability of Shaita Angels. Urey dismissed the narrative that the LFA president has been a primary benefactor of her club. To provide clarity on the investment gap, she revealed the following figures:

Category | Contribution/Investment

Urey’s Personal Investment | Over $200,000 USD

LFA/Raji Contribution | $200 USD (Lower League Prize)

Current Status | Club Subvention Withheld

Urey further alleged that despite public assurances from the LFA that subvention checks were ready for pickup, her team remains empty-handed—a move she views as a calculated financial chokehold due to her support for Kuoh.

The most harrowing aspect of Urey’s statement involved the personal sacrifices made to keep female football alive in Liberia. She detailed a grueling journey of "begging from office to office" and even facing sexual harassment while seeking sponsorships for her team.

The LFA President is also accused of professional betrayal. Urey claims that while she was being targeted by the media regarding her role on the Awards Committee, Raji encouraged her privately only to "disgrace" her publicly on-air to protect his own image.

The Shaita Angels boss has promised a comprehensive "live" video broadcast to further detail the breakdown of the relationship. She maintains that her departure from the Raji camp has nothing to do with external influence and "everything to do with Raji’s selfish ways" and his alleged inability to protect his allies.

As the LFA prepares for its next chapter, these allegations raise significant questions regarding the treatment of stakeholders and the transparency of funds within the association.
