Liberia: Ex-President Sirleaf Urges Legislature to Lead Constitutional Reform, Calls for Citizenship Rights for Non-Negroes in Historic Address
Previous Reforms and Ongoing DebateLiberia has taken some steps toward reforming its citizenship laws in recent years. While discussions about citizenship laws have continued over the years, direct calls to amend Article 27(b) have remained rare, making Sirleaf’s appeal particularly significant. Alarm Over Low Female RepresentationSirleaf also criticized the low number of women in Liberia’s Legislature, describing it as embarrassing for the country. He said the Legislature must review economic regulations and citizenship laws to reflect current global realities while protecting Liberia’s sovereign interests. Observers say Sirleaf’s address could reignite major national discussions on constitutional reform, citizenship laws, land governance, and gender representation in Liberia’s political system.

Peculiarity and dangers of Nigeria’s politics of fear
In political theory, “politics of fear” refers to the deliberate production and amplification of fear to secure power, shape opinion and justify the measures. Those forced to abdicate their civic role reconsider and say, “Politics no concern me.” Thus, indifference becomes the first layer. Political fear is largely manufactured, crafted and transmitted through headlines, rumour and threats. As the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) releases the timetable for next year’s elections, fear-based politics risks hardening into the system’s default setting. If fear remains a most reliable political instrument, each election will become another expression of a paper-thin democracy that evaporates at the polling unit.

Monrovia, Liberia; March 6, 2026: The Government of Liberia, in partnership with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), will on March 12, 2026, dedicate a newly completed prefabricated solar-powered cold storage facility for fish mongers in Robertsport City, Grand Cape Mount County. The dedication marks a major step forward in improving the livelihoods of fishing communities and strengthening local value chains under the Accelerated Community Development Programme (ACDP).

Liberia: Pres. Boakai Warns Cabinet Officials Against Undermining Government Decisions
Webster Clayeh [email protected]Speaking during the first cabinet meeting of 2026, President Boakai revealed that some government officials have been in the habit of working against decisions collectively agreed upon by the administration. During the meeting held on March 5, 2026, the Liberian leader did not name the officials allegedly undermining government decisions. President Boakai cautioned that any official found encouraging public resistance to government policies would face dismissal. When we make decisions, they go and undermine those very decisions—they go and push the people to resist,” President Boakai said. President Boakai also reminded cabinet members of their responsibilities in ensuring effective governance and delivering results for the Liberian people.

Doloyuwah also rejected claims linking the senator to alleged corrupt dealings involving the China Union concession, stating that the allegations were entirely baseless. “The allegation that Senator Kpehe used the China Union concession for personal enrichment is entirely baseless,” Doloyuwah noted. No evidence has been produced to support this claim.”Beyond addressing the corruption allegations, Doloyuwah also responded to suggestions made during the podcast that Senator Kpehe has been inactive in legislative proceedings since taking office.

Liberia: Assassination of President Tolbert” – Gerald Barclay’s Gripping New Documentary Premieres at South African Film Festival
Monrovia – Award-winning Liberian film director and cinematographer Gerald K. Barclay is preparing to release a powerful new documentary examining the assassination of President William Richard Tolbert Jr., Liberia’s 19th president, and the historic events that reshaped the country’s political destiny. Forty-five years later, the Government of Liberia, led by President Joseph Boakai, in July 2025, dedicated a Memorial Site in honor of the late President William Richard Tolbert, Jr. and the 13 government officials. Tolbert assumed the presidency in 1971 following the death of President William V. S. Tubman. These tensions ultimately culminated in the 1980 military coup, which dramatically altered Liberia’s political landscape. Among those appearing in the trailer are former Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, who served as Minister of Finance at the time of the coup, Dr. Elwood Dunn, former Minister of State for Presidential Affairs during the Tolbert administration, Ambassador Neh-Dukuly Tolbert, widow of Steve Tolbert, and Richard V. Tolbert, nephew of President Tolbert.

Liberia Moves to Criminalize Gender-Based Online Abuse
By James T. BrooksCAPITOL HILL, Monrovia — Liberia’s House of Representatives has officially begun the formal review of landmark legislation designed to criminalize gender-based online abuse. The proposed measure, titled the Protection from Gender-Based Online Abuse Amendment Act of 2026, was submitted to the Plenary and subsequently referred to the House Committees on Information, Broadcasting, and Judiciary. If enacted, the amendment would represent a major shift in how Liberia balances its hard-won press freedoms with the need for digital accountability. In his transmittal communication, Flomo warned that social media has increasingly become a conduit for “profane, vulgar, and insulting language” used to degrade individuals based on their gender. Nonetheless, the swift referral to the committee suggests a high level of legislative interest in addressing the toxic environment often found on Liberian social media.

“If You Want to Die, Go To JFK or Redemption Hospitals”
Such accusations, if substantiated, raise grave questions about professional ethics and accountability within the public health sector. Liberia’s healthcare system has endured enormous strain over the past decades. The growing narrative that public hospitals are unsafe poses a dangerous risk to national health. When citizens fear hospitals, they may delay seeking medical attention or turn to unregulated clinics and traditional healers. Liberia’s public health system now stands at a crossroads where the only path forward involves a renewed commitment to the principle that every Liberian life matters, regardless of status or circumstance.
