Monrovia – The Liberia Anti-Corruption Commission (LACC) has called on all public officials and government employees who are required to declare their income, assets and liabilities to do so. According to the LACC, all public officials who are entering or re-entering public office and have no record of declaring or re-declaring their income, assets and liabilities are required by law to do so prior to taking office. President George Weah and members of his cabinet are yet to declare their assets to the LACC, despite many calls from the public for them to do so. “The LACC believes that the declaration of income, assets and liabilities is healthy in enhancing accountability, transparency and integrity in the public sector. The LACC, therefore calls on all Public Officials and Employees of Government to comply with the law,” the statement noted.
