Liberia's Elections Chief on Code of Conduct Ruling: 'Whatever Supreme Court Says, Will be Followed'


Jerome Korkoya, chairman of the National Elections Commission has vowed to uphold the recent Supreme Court’s ruling on the code of conduct to the letter. His statement comes two days after the decision by the country’s final Arbiter of justice to declare the contested Code of Conduct constitutional. “What the National Elections commission will be doing is to obey the court’s opinion and comply strictly with the Supreme Court’s interpretation of the code of conduct. I don’t want to comment on this further but I can tell you this: Whatever then Supreme Court, says will be followed to the letter. If the Supreme Court broadens the language on the code of conduct we will follow that opinion if it narrows the language on the code of conduct we will follow any thing the Supreme Court says is what we will follow.”The majority opinion was objected by Associate Justices Justice Philip A.Z.
