New Castle, Delaware - The Association of Liberian Journalists in the Americas (ALJA) is urging President, George Manneh Weah, to revoke with immediacy the nomination of Cllr. Gibson lacks the moral rectitude to serve as Attorney General and Chief Prosecutor in the new Liberia which President Weah envisioned on January 22, 2018, when he took the oath of office as the nation’s 24th President. The diaspora based Liberian journalists maintained that Ambassador Weah cannot afford to hire and retain an Attorney General who has a shady past. Gibson’s past criminal history, he cannot be a face of the George Weah administration’s criminal justice system. ALJA said unless the accused are given the benefit of the doubt by going through a rigorous and speedy legal probe for the stated charges, President Weah should not allow their nominations to proceed.
