This newspaper fully concurs with suggestions calling for the implementation of the TRC report which recommended prosecution for perpetrators of gross human rights abuse and economic crimes. The Daily Observer further welcomes the vote and resolution from the Liberia National Bar Association (LNBA) endorsing the TRC report and calling for full implementation of its recommendations. Over the past month for example the Daily Observer has unfailingly reported incidences of mob violence occurring around the country. In yet another instance, armed street thugs led by the leader of the Liberia National Students Union (LINSU) violently disrupted the Movement for Justice in Africa’s (MOJA) 46th anniversary program. In view of this, the establishment of a war and economic crimes court for Liberia has become an exigency.
