Liberty Party Chairman, Senator Steve ZargoMonrovia – The opposition Liberty Party (LP) says it takes seriously and is aware of the political emotions and intolerance driving lawsuits against Mr. Abraham Darius Dillon, the LP Vice Chair for Political Affairs and Mr. Henry P. Costa, arguably the most vocal critics of the regime. According to the party’s Chairman, Senator Steve Zargo of Lofa County, the Party will do everything legally and politically reasonable to protect the two individuals, as their advocacies continue to benefit the greater interests of the country. “These officials are supposed to know that democracy, the form of government that we subscribe to, is one founded on freedom. “He doesn’t need to be told that he is presiding over a deeply divided nation.”The Party also acknowledged and endorsed information of a planned peaceful protest by a group of Liberians, “the Council of Patriots” on June 7, 2019. “We welcome the pending peaceful protest as it is a fundamental tenet of democracy for the people to freely assemble and petition their government when it is so required.
