The leadership of the National Muslim Council of Liberia (NMCOL), the nation’s highest Islamic body, yesterday, September 5, called on the legislature to abandon its current impeachment proceeding against Associate Justice Kabineh Mohammed Ja’neh. Both the legislature and the judiciary have been embroiled in a legal rigmarole (lengthy, complicated procedure) over the impeachment of Associate Justice Ja’neh in recent weeks. The House has also passed a resolution calling for the impeachment of Justice Ja’neh, forwarding said instrument to the senate for action. Meanwhile, after initial review of the House’s impeachment resolution by the senate, the proposed impeachment resolution has now been sent to the senate’s judicial committee for review and recommendation. “NMCOL, therefore, humbly admonishes the Honorable lawmakers to abandon the impeachment course of action at this point in time as it will further divide the nation.
