Senator Johnson is Nimba County Senior while Senator Sherman represents Grand Cape Mount County in the Liberian Senate. They were re-elected on May 18, 2021 when the Liberian Senate conducted its leadership elections. ALJA says it opposes the re-elections of the senators to positions of trust in the Liberian Senate, because of their shady public records.
