The Liberian Senate has cited authorities of the Monrovia City Corporation (MCC), and the Ministry of Public Works to appear next Tuesday before the full Plenary as a committee of a whole.

The Senate decision to cite the two institutions is triggered by a report from the committee on Public Works and Rural Development based on plenary mandate to investigate a concern by Senator Edwin Melvin Snowe, Jr., of Bomi County regarding the deplorable state of the city of Monrovia, especially the Psalm Grove Cemetery in central Monrovia.

In his communication to Plenary, Senator Snowe emphasized that the city of Monrovia does not reflect the image of Liberia in this 21st century and rallied the Senate to take decisive steps to address the situation.
The Bomi County Lawmaker pinpointed the Palm Grove Cemetery as one of the worst reflections on the city of Monrovia.

Against this backdrop, Senator Snowe prayed the wisdom of the Senate to muster the political will to take drastic action to relocate the Palm Grove Cemetery to enhance the redecorations of Liberia’s capital.
Authorities of MCC and Public works are expected to appear on Tuesday July 1, 2025 before the full Plenary of the Senate.

“The D’Calabash Scientist Has Been Exposed – We’ve Been Vindicated!” CDC Koijee says..

CDC Secretary General Jefferson Koijee has launched a scathing attack on Dr. Dougbeh Chris Nyan, accusing the public health official of negligence and self-promotion during Liberia’s Mpox outbreak. Koijee claimed that while vulnerable citizens, including a young man now publicly recounting his painful experience, suffered without adequate medical attention, Dr. Nyan was absent from critical communities like West Point, Logan Town, and Clara Town.

The Opposition Leader Koijee alleges, Dr. Nyan was seen at D’Calabash, a local entertainment lounge, posing with awareness posters while indulging in social activities behavior Koijee labeled as “performative” and “insulting to the public’s intelligence.” He criticized Dr. Nyan for turning a national health emergency into what he called a “stage-managed publicity stunt,” accusing him of prioritizing appearances and leisure over meaningful medical engagement.

Koijee emphasized that the CDC’s earlier warnings about Dr. Nyan’s lack of presence have now been vindicated by emerging evidence and public testimonies. He called Dr. Nyan’s actions a “dangerous abuse of public trust” and demanded an apology to the Liberian people, along with accountability for what he characterized as professional misconduct.

He concluded by warning that Liberia’s health system cannot be led by those more interested in photo ops than frontline service, and stated bluntly that if Dr. Nyan cannot serve with humility and seriousness, he should step down.

Koijee also took a jab at the current system’s inefficiency, noting that even the 4455 public health hotline is nonfunctional, despite prior claims of superior crisis management.
