Africa-Press – Liberia. <\/strong><\/span>Presidential hopeful Dr. Max O. Vargbelee has pleaded with Liberians to kick President George Manneh Weah out through the ballot this October 2023, claiming that he has lost the trust and confidence of the people.<\/p>\n

Dr. Vargbelee in a telephone interview with our Bong County correspondent recently said the Country has turned into a complete mess and is hanging on the shoulders of Weah and his corrupt officials.<\/p>\n

He alleged that Mr. Weah and his officials continue to squander the resources that everyone should be benefiting from.<\/p>\n

He said this is despite the high expectations of the Liberian people which led to the overwhelming election of the former footballing legend.<\/p>\n

He said corruption has become endemic at every level of Liberia, making the country under Mr. Weah one of the most politically corrupt nations in the world.<\/p>\n

The Liberians United for Change Political Leader stated that Weah has done absolutely nothing in punishing corrupt leaders.<\/p>\n

\u201cWeah has failed the Liberian people; he and his officials have taken corruption as their normal life even though they were against this when they were in opposition,\u201d said Vargbelee.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday, our people are suffering at the hands of these wicked people and yet they hear the cries everywhere but do nothing to salvage the situation,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

According to him, 90% of Weah\u2019s officials intend to get rich because they feel it is \u201ctheir time.\u201d<\/p>\n

He maintained that even Weah himself has gotten rich overnight just within less than six years in the country\u2019s position.<\/p>\n

Dr. Vargbelee referenced the 2022 United States Treasury Department report which announced sanctions on three senior Liberian officials for alleged corruption.<\/p>\n

The US report accused Weah\u2019s former Minister of State Nathaniel McGill of a variety of corruption schemes, including directing warlords to threaten political rivals, bribery, and the misappropriation of state assets.<\/p>\n

The report also accused Sayma Cyrenius Cephus, Liberia\u2019s former Solicitor general, and Chief Prosecutor of shielding suspected criminals, blocking investigations into government corruption, and interfering with evidence to ensure the conviction of political rivals.<\/p>\n

For the former Managing Director of Liberia\u2019s National Port Authority, the report accused Bill Twehway of funneling money from the port into private accounts.<\/p>\n

Because of these and many more, Dr. Vargbelee said the country\u2019s progression has been stepped on by the Weah-led administration.<\/p>\n

He called on every Liberian who means well for the country to \u201ckick\u201d out the CDC government for the progress of the country.<\/p>\n
