Africa-Press – Liberia. <\/strong><\/span>The Women Situation Room (WSR) over the weekend officially visited and congratulated Unity Party (UP) standard bearer Amb. Joseph Numah Boakai for maintaining Liberia\u2019s peace during the 14 November 2023 presidential run-off election.<\/p>\nOn Saturday, 18 November WSR, a flagship program of the Angie Brooks International Center for Women\u2019s Empowerment, Leadership Development, International Peace and Security, paid a courtesy visit at the home of Amb. Boakai.<\/p>\n
Following the run-off election, Boakai is ahead of incumbent President George Manneh Weah with more than 99 percent of the results released by the National Elections Commission (NEC).<\/p>\n
The NEC is due to announce the final result today, Monday, 20 November 2023.<\/p>\n
The purpose of WSR\u2019s visit was to extol Amb. Boakai for maintaining Liberia\u2019s peace during the run-off election.<\/p>\n
The visit was also meant to caution Amb. Boakai to continue on the path of peace and focus on national reconciliation because the election has divided Liberians along several lines.<\/p>\n
The WSR visitation was headed by ABIC Establishment Coordinator Cllr. Yvette Chesson-Wureh and graced by the eminent women of Liberia.<\/p>\n
They included former Chief Justice Cllr. Francis Johnson-Allison, Cuttington University President Dr. Romelle A. Horton, and former Foreign Affairs Minister, Olubanke King Akerele, among others.<\/p>\n
The objective of the Women\u2019s Situation Room is to ensure that there is peace before, during and after election.<\/p>\n
The WSR is recognized by the United Nations Security Council, African Union as one of the best mechanized in the world in peace and security.<\/p>\n
WSR deployed over seven hundred observers in seven concentrated counties in Liberia and seven hundred peace monitors.<\/p>\n
During the visit, Cllr. Yvette Chesson-Wureh said they had gone to congratulate Amb. Boakai not just for victory but for the manner and form in which he conducted himself during the election.<\/p>\n
According to her, they are proud of the process and the way in which Amb. Boakai did it.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have come to congratulate you, for the manner and former in which you conducted the process. Your engagement towards the process was not violent, rather my people let vote and vote for the best person,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd you told them that you were the best. And so, your campaign was about ideas, instead of violence,\u201d she said further.<\/p>\n
She stated that Amb. Boakai made history for this republic because Liberians are transitioning once more peacefully.<\/p>\n
She indicated that this history is not for Liberians alone, but the entire region, thanking the Unity Party leader for that.<\/p>\n
For her part, former Foreign Affairs Minister Olubanke King Akerele thanked Amb. Boakai for the unofficial victory and for the protection and maintenance of Liberia\u2019s peace and security.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe thank you for the process. Now, there is no republic of UP or CDC. Rather, it\u2019s the Republic of Liberia and that is the message we have been about in your think Liberia, love Liberia and build Liberia.\u201d<\/p>\n
