Liberia souring on George Weah at two-year markRampant inflation has left many people in Liberia struggling and increasingly turning their anger on President George Weah. Stories such as Kpadeh's are common in Liberia, where rampant inflation has left many people struggling and increasingly turning their anger on President George Weah. His election win was a watershed moment for Liberia's poor, many of whom idolised the man who rose from Monrovia's slums to football stardom, and the nation's highest office.

"The two years of George Weah have been a total failure," said Mo Alie, a COP co-chairman.
