Speaking with this newspaper recently, Mr. Wleh said this time around they are hoping that lawmakers can see the importance of the dual citizenship push that they in the diaspora have embarked upon. The ALCOD Co-chair argues that “once a Liberian should always be a Liberian,” and so they want the Liberia’s Alien and Nationality Law amended.
