Sources at the NEC said she did not show up for work the whole of Thursday. The NEC Chairperson came under a barrage of public scrutiny and investigation by the Liberia Anti-Corruption Commission (LACC) after investigative media reports disclosed that she had rented 22 pieces of facial recognition thermometers for US$182,000. Upon investigation, the LACC in its report, recommended the dismissal of madam Lansanah as head of the electoral body. The LACC also recommended the head of the procurement department of the NEC. Meanwhile, Madam Lansanah has denied any form of admission of guilt of financial impropriety to the LACC.
