MONROVIA – The Board of Commissioners of the National Elections Commission, (NEC) has reaffirmed Mr. Frank Saah Foko as the winner of the December 2021 electoral District 9, Montserrado County Representative by-election. The unanimous ruling of the Board of NEC was read on Tuesday by Chairperson Davidetta Browne Lansanah. However, lawyers representing the Complainant Fubi F. Henries of the Collaborating Political Parties, CPP, led by Cllr. Chairperson Browne Lansanah said the complainant Fubi Henries failed to establish that irregularity and fraud occurred during the Representative By-Election on December 8 and that could change outcome of the election. The Board cited several opinions from the Supreme Court including the case Sando Johnson versus NEC decided December 2005, Brumskine et al versus NEC decided 21 December 2017, and Fayd versus Dennie, 39 LLR 587, decided 1999.
