Jewel Howard-Taylor, the last person to occupy the role as First Lady to former President Charles Ghankay Taylor, is now vice President to the current President George Manneh Weah. “I haven't met the First Lady, Madame Clar Weah personally, but I think she has a good heart. She is super engaging and will do an amazing job as the First Lady of the Liberia,” posted Patience Handful Dalieh on her Facebook page last week. When women at the facility chanted: “We love you our beautiful First Lady,” Mrs. Weah returned in kind, saying: “I appreciate it, I appreciate the love… But I never expected this.”Mrs. Weah met her future husband when she was a Customer Service representative at a Chase Bank in New York where Weah had gone to open an account. Now fully grounded in the role of Liberia’s first lady, Mrs. Weah is already on the verge of obtaining a Liberian passport because of her new portfolio.
