Africa-Press – Liberia. <\/strong><\/span>The campaign team of the ruling Coalition for Democratic Change (CDC) has strongly condemned the act of its supporters parading the streets with a coffin bearing photos of opposition leader Amb. Joseph Nyumah Boakai.<\/p>\nThe CDC campaign team issued the condemnation minutes after its supporters paraded with the coffin on the first day of the campaign on Saturday, 5 August 2023.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe can\u2019t allow people to injure this peace. The president has asked me to rebuke those Liberians and ask them to refrain from all forms of violence,\u201d CDC Secretary General and Monrovia Mayor Jefferson T. Koijee said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe can\u2019t win these elections by injuring the peace. We call on those young patriotic citizens to refrain from any act that will spark up violence,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
Koijee said the action of some young CDC partisans and supporters to have paraded the principal streets of Monrovia with coffins bearing Boakai\u2019s image was uncalled for and totally out of order.<\/p>\n
He said it did not represent the character of the founder of the CDC, incumbent President George Manneh Weah.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe want to frown at the decision of our partisans who took to the streets parading with coffins carrying photos of the standard bearer of the opposition Unity Party, Ambassador Joseph N. Boakai. This is totally uncalled for and out of order,\u201d Koijee stated.<\/p>\n
Koijee said the ruling party wants to protect the peace, adding that President Weah has no intention to compromise the peace.<\/p>\n
Mr. Koijee suggested that the CDC has no intention to injure the peace that everyone is enjoying today.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur biggest competitors in these elections are the Liberian people. We are competing to change their living conditions. We are competing to bring better and affordable healthcare system, and to improve the education sector,\u201d said Koijee.<\/p>\n
The CDC Secretary General explained that he had been asked to encourage supporters never to get involved in acts of violence.<\/p>\n
According to him, the CDC is a party that believes in peace, noting that it won\u2019t tolerate any of its partisans and supporters causing chaos, especially during the camping periods.<\/p>\n
Maritime Commissioner Len Eugene Nagbe said the act carried out by CDC supporters was unacceptable.<\/p>\n
According to him, the Weah-Taylor 2023 Campaign Committee re-commits itself to the conduct of an issue-based campaign that emphasizes the exceptional record of development and good governance of President Weah.<\/p>\n
Mr. Nagbe stressed the importance of maintaining a peaceful, democratic environment.<\/p>\n
\u2018This action is unacceptable and does not represent the set of activities that have been envisioned to characterize this crucial democratic exercise,\u201d said Mr. Nagbe.<\/p>\n
