Led by Eminent Emmanuel S. Wettee and his dedicated team, the All Liberian Conference on Dual Citizenship (ALCOD) has tirelessly championed reforms in the 2022 Dual Citizenship Act. Eminent Emmanuel S. Wettee and other patriots are resolute in their call for a revision, aiming to eliminate the disenfranchisement of Liberian-born citizens living abroad, as highlighted by Capitol Times Liberia (source: Capitol Times Liberia). The current Dual Citizenship Act fosters exclusionary political representation, hindering democratically-minded Liberians abroad from participating in electoral processes, a viewpoint echoed by the Liberian Observer (source: Liberian Observer). Given the significant economic contributions of diaspora Liberians through remittances, denying them a voice in national governance is considered a gross injustice. ALCOD’s commendable battle, guided by Eminent Emmanuel S. Wettee and his team for revising the 2022 Dual Citizenship Act, is crucial for fostering a fair democratic process.
