County Meet Update

The Organizing Committee of the National County Sports Meet has officially overturned the decision of the Appeal Committee, reaffirming its initial ruling in favor of Grand Cape Mount County.

With this latest decision, the original verdict stands, and Lofa County has been officially eliminated from the competition, bringing the matter to a final close.

Monrovia, Liberia (January 1, 2026)~Grand Cape Mount County has strongly rejected the December 31, 2025 ruling of the National County Sports Meet (NCSM) Appeal Committee, insisting that it rightfully won its match against Lofa County by forfeiture due to the fielding of ineligible players.

Speaking on behalf of the county in a Facebook Post, Boakai Jaleiba described the Appeal Committee’s decision as “deeply disappointing” and inconsistent with both the NCSM rules and international football standards. He argued that while the committee acknowledged that Lofa County used players involved in fraudulent transfers, it failed to apply the mandatory punishment required under the competition’s regulations.

According to ARTICLE XVIII of the NCSM Rules, any county that fields an illegal player must forfeit the match and pay a fine. Grand Cape Mount maintains that by confirming the fraudulent transfers but ordering a replay instead of enforcing a forfeit, the Appeal Committee ignored the clear language of the rules.

“The committee admitted the violation but refused to apply the automatic sanction,” Jaleiba said. “By doing so, it rendered ARTICLE XVIII meaningless and replaced the rules with its own discretion.”

Grand Cape Mount also cited FIFA principles, noting that under global football standards, teams that field ineligible players forfeit the match. The county argued that allowing a replay rewards wrongdoing and undermines the integrity of the competition.

The county further criticized the Appeal Committee’s reference to “peace, reconciliation, and unification” as justification for its ruling, saying true unity can only be built on fairness and strict adherence to the rules.

Grand Cape Mount has therefore called on the Ministry of Youth and Sports and the Liberia Football Association (LFA) to intervene, uphold the original Protest Committee ruling of December 29, and advance the county to the next round of the competition.

“This is not just about one match,” the statement concluded. “It is about defending the integrity of football in Liberia and ensuring that the rules apply equally to all.”

"The government pays me gross salary of 8,800 United States Dollars. After taxes and deductions, the amount is reduced to around 6,000 United States Dollars, with 30% of this sum converted into Liberian dollars.

On December 26, the government disbursed payments to all lawmakers. I received 4,643 US Dollars and a little over 360,000 Liberian dollars. This is what I made every month."

Representative Momo Siafa Kpoto disclosed his salary to the citizens of District #3 during his legislative report.
