Monrovia — Three senior members of President George Manneh Weah-led government have been slapped with sanctions by the United States Department of Treasury. I promise to deliver on this mandate.’The sanctions under the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) designated McGill, Cephus, and Twehway for their involvement in ongoing public corruption in Liberia. These designations reaffirm the commitment of the United States to hold corrupt actors accountable. OFAC’s regulations generally prohibit all dealings by U.S. persons or within the United States (including transactions transiting the United States) that involve any property or interests in property of blocked or designated persons.
