Press Statement for Immediate Release

For towing casket bearing the photo of opposition Unity Party Standard bearer Joseph Nyumah Boakai Sr., and former Vice President of Liberia on the first day of campaign by CDCians, the leadership and members of Government Agenda Reporters (GAR-LIBERIA) strongly condemned the act .

GAR-LIBERIA as a media group with focus on propagating government's programs and policies, is also cognizant of preaching peace messages across Liberia, as Liberians go to the pulls come October 10 to elect a President and some Lawmakers that will stir the affairs for the next (6) and (9) years.

As a peace building media institution, we use this medium to call on all Politicians, Heads of Political Parties, and their supporters to prioritize Liberia over self interest, because we take Liberia to be our common denominator.

We strongly condemned the act carried out by members of the CDC, and add our voice to the many voices, including President Weah, that such decision is unbecoming and must stop, because it doesn't offer well for our Country.

We believe that, this unwanted form of campaign has the proclivity to demain
and hamper the peace and democracy of our beloved Country.

It is our hope and prayer that those involved will desist, as we approach these elections.

Again GAR Liberia is calling on the ruling establishment (CDC) and all political parties to maintain the high earned peace as we observe a free , fair and transparent election.

Peace First and Peace Last.

LNP Vows To Deal With Troublemakers During Campaign Period

The Liberia National Police (LNP) has cautioned all political parties and independent candidates to avoid violence in the conduct of their political campaign activities, threatening to deal with any troublemaker during the campaign period.

In a special message of peace at the opening of the campaign on Saturday, Police Inspector General, Patrick Sudue, urged all political leaders, partisans, civil society actors, media practitioners, religious leaders and all well-meaning Liberians to comport themselves in the best manner of protecting the peace and stability of the state.

IG Sudue noted that, if the elections are to be held under a peaceful atmosphere, it will require the collective involvement of all stakeholders. He urged all stakeholders, be it political or non-political actor, to put the peace of the country first and eschew violence and other actions that could undermine the hard-earned peace of the state.

IG Sudue further encouraged heads of parties and independent candidates to work closely with the LNP in ensuring that the LNP is involved with their electoral activities, which will prevent unseen situations or circumstances of violence.

He warned that anyone caught in any act of electoral violence would be made to face the full weight of the law.

“We especially appreciate if members of the press maintain a high level of professionalism in the discharge of their reportorial duties at all times and avoid hate messages, misinformation and disinformation,” IG Sudue added.

Judging from past experiences, IG Sudue warned traditional leaders to desist using the Country Devil to disrupt the peaceful conduct of the elections, and urged the traditional leaders to revert to the rule of law if there are situations that need the intervention of law enforcement officers.

He indicated that the peace of Liberia remains a paramount concern of members of the Joint Security, adding that “all will be done legally to deal with anyone who attempts to undermine the peace and stability of the state during these critical times of our electoral process”.
