\u201cEISA-IEOM strongly condemns the acts of violence that emerged in District 3 in Nimba County on November 10, 2023, resulting in injuries of more than five people due to the shooting,\u201d EISA-IEOM said.<\/p>\n
Mission also cited another incident in Grand Gedeh County involving supporters of the opposition Unity Party (UP) and the ruling Coalition for Democratic Change (CDC) on the same day.<\/p>\n
EISA-IEOM further stated that it is concerned about the minimal post-election peace messaging observable since the announcement of the results and called on Liberians to continue to show the restraint and calm demonstrated on 10 October.<\/p>\n
Mr. Soukolgue noted that community-level mechanisms to encourage acceptance of results, community dispute resolution, and physical safety are crucial as the country holds the run-off election.<\/p>\n
Soukolgue reminded Liberians that the gains made so far in consolidating peace and strengthening democracy have come at a significant cost.<\/p>\n
The EISA-IEOM Executive Director said any post-election violence would be a major setback for the prosperity and democracy of Liberians.<\/p>\n
He reiterated the recommendations made in all EISA-IEOM\u2019s public reports and analyses, encouraging Liberian stakeholders to uphold peace and tolerance.<\/p>\n
At the same time, the EISA-IEOM called on political parties to adhere to the Farmington agreement and lead by example and also educate their party supporters.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe call on political parties to lead by example and also educate their party supporters on the importance of adhering to the Farmington River Declaration principles,\u201d EISA-IEOM said.<\/p>\n
The EISA IEOM has been in Liberia since January 2023, observing and reporting on all key electoral activities.<\/p>\n
The USAID-funded organization seeks to enhance the integrity of the 2023 Liberian presidential and legislative elections through the deployment of an independent international Election Observer Mission (EOM).<\/p>\n
The observers are to monitor, assess and report on all phases of the electoral process in accordance with international and regional benchmarks.<\/p>\n
The IEOM is implemented in close coordination with the financial support of USAID\/Liberia and will complement the efforts of other electoral stakeholders.<\/p>\n
