Joseph N. Boakai desperately seeking the presidency to return to government.<\/p>\n<p>NPP is a constituent party of the ruling Coalition for Democratic Change (CDC).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAmbassador Boakai is very ashamed to return to government, wanting to be the head when he has not done anything that will demonstrate his seriousness while serving for twelve years,\u201d said Mr. Peters Monday, 29 May 2023 at the CDC headquarters in Oldest Congo Town.<\/p>\n<p>He told a news conference that the pending October presidential and legislative elections are not about long speeches.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, Peters suggested that the elections are about tangible, accusing the opposition of failing to point out a single tangible that will convince the public.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have the tangibility, so this election will not be about long speeches. All we continue to hear is empty speeches that can\u2019t show up for anything,\u201d the NPP\/CDC official said.<\/p>\n<p>He alleged that the hate for President George Manneh Weah is too much, and the CDC is yet to see what the opposition has done besides making speeches.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll we continue to hear about is their desire to rescue. What are [they] rescuing? Is that the same damage they caused in this country?\u201d he wondered.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have to be very careful, the revolution to rescue the young people of this country was launched long ago by President Weah. no one else can rescue this country,\u201d Peters contended.<\/p>\n<p>He questioned the Boakai- Jeremiah Koung presidential ticket, asking what the ticket has to show to tell Liberians that they are capable of rescuing this country.<\/p>\n<p>He used the occasion to call on the government to move faster, urging it to \u2018resist the dictatorship,\u2019 because this country belongs to everyone.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe don\u2019t need a recycling people who are desperately in need to take state power,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Peters vowed to establish the River Cess for Weah to buttress the party\u2019s efforts in campaigning for the reelection bid of President Weah.<\/p>\n<p>He called on CDCians to work hard to reject what he called an evil ticket.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s nothing they can offer; they\u2019re just thirsty for political power. They\u2019re all power greed and [a] bunch of people that have failed to show any tangible,\u201d Peters branded the opposition.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/liberia\">Liberia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Liberia.
