From the inception of the re-election of Representative Foko, there were allegations that he had made arrangements with the Mother of the fallen District Representative, Munah Youngblood to move at her residence in Duazon immediately after the election to have some piece of mind. However, efforts made in contacting the office of the Representative to speak on this allegation has been thrashed and demeaned on grounds that the information lacks the iota of truth. While other residents of the District holds that it violates the residency clause of the election laws of Liberia, some are waried that such act will scare development and adequate representation away from the District and thereby cautioned the District 9 Representative to do the needful or risk being petition for impeachment stated Mr. Thomas Johnson, former member of the CDC Sabu/Zebra unit.
On yesterday, January 8, 2024, in a crowded leadership meeting, officials of the District Leadership convened and collectively agreed on the modified dress code of District Officials and partisans for the Inauguration of the Unity Party government. Meanwhile, the group agreed to change the design of the lappa that was already submitted of the leadership that they will be required to fashion their African cloth into a professional African men attire from the modified lappa.
In another development, the Leadership of the Unity Party Montserrado County Chapter through its Chairman, Mr. Robert Bestman has issued opportunities forms to partisans and officials of the party in Electoral District 9, Montserrado County on the basis of purchase and not loyalty to the party. This irritating allegation says that the UP STRATIFICATION MATRIX which was issued by the County Secretariat Head, Mr. Amos Kollie to the Controversial and Expelled Saydee Myers, at a time, where there has been no Committee appointed to supervise the appointment of officials in the upcoming government. Credible content of information has it that the matrix form is currently on sale by the expelled District 9 Coordinator, Mr. K. Saydee Myers for US $15 per slot. Notwithstanding, our sources contact with the District Leadership also unveiled that this is not the first time for the County Leadership to exploit partisans and officials of the party in the District. Referencing the issue of ID Card payment which was also allegedly escalated by the county leadership through the EXPELLED Saydee Myers for partisans of the Unity Party to pay US $10 instead of US $5 as indicated in the guidelines of the committee on elections and campaign of the party, said the District Secretary General, Mr. Daniel Bestman.
The UP Acting District Coordinator (ADC), Mr. J. Aaron Nyumah, calls on all partisans of the Unity Party in his constituency to refrain from dubious dealings in the name of the party. The ADC, went on to take aback serious assertions on the continuous attempt of the County Leadership to empower the Controversial and Expelled Saydee Myers into dubious dealings. Providing frame of references on his statement, he intimated to this outlet, that every process required by the standards of the Unity Party has been duly followed by the party's constitutional fundamentalists ranging from taking decisions in line with the party mandate to the serving pertinent communications to the higher authorities in the party. Mr. Nyumah lamented that all efforts made in reaching out to offices of the County Leadership has been stalled due to compromise of Corruption on the part of the County Leadership, he noted. Contrastingly, the ADC informed this oaltform that the waves of concerns from eminent and ordinary partisans, has compelled him to call all officials of the party whether elected or appointed to put aside all plans to dubiously deal in the name of the Unity Party in the midst of the stubbornness of the County Leadership to seize all transactions of the party with the controversial Myers. Importantly, Mr. Nyumah highlighted that there has been series of communications sent to the offices of the National Executive Committee through the National Chairman's Office and County Leadership through the County Chairman's Office but there's has been no attempt to hear the matter of District 9 which is the Hub of the Rescue Mission, he added.
