Africa-Press – Liberia. <\/strong><\/span>The ruling Coalition for Democratic Change (CDC) Secretary General and Monrovia Mayor Jefferson Tamba Koijee is rallying citizens to refrain from acts that would undermine democracy and peace.<\/p>\n

Koijee\u2019s call came at a press conference Sunday evening, 19 November 2023 in the aftermath of the 2023 presidential run-off election results.<\/p>\n

Mr. Koijee said partisans of the CDC should be wary of those who would want to use their political defeat at the polls to ferment violence under the guise of being supporters and partisans of President George Manneh Weah and the CDC.<\/p>\n

Speaking at CDC headquarters, Koijee applauded President Weah for his magnanimity in accepting the outcome of the 2023 polls.<\/p>\n

Koijee believed it was an unprecedented display of patriotism and putting the wellbeing of the country above his personal ambitions to become president at all costs.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want to congratulate all our collaborating parties for your hard work and dedication during this electioneering period,\u201d Koijee said.<\/p>\n

He warned those who are spies and pretending to be members of the Coalition for Democratic Change with the evil intentions to manipulate their partisans and supporters.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe know our partisans very well. They are sober, peaceful and resilient people. No political party has withstood intense provocations and remained peaceful like we did for 12 years in opposition to the extent that our partisans and supporters were killed,\u201d Koijee alleged.<\/p>\n

According to him, the CDC and its supporting political institutions went into this process with their all.<\/p>\n

He warn some of those pretending to be partisans and spreading rumors that the CDC is calling for a rerun.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat is false and misleading. Do not mislead our partisans. At no time did the CDC call for rerun. There were issues in a few places in Nimba, Grand Gedeh and Grand Kru Counties,\u201d Koijee explained.<\/p>\n

\u201cThose issues are being handled by the relevant people with the National Elections Commission (NEC).\u201d<\/p>\n

He called on partisans of the CDC not to allow themselves to be misled at this time.<\/p>\n

He told his partisans that there are people who will come to CDC partisans under the guise of being partisans of the CDC to feed them with misinformation and disinformation.<\/p>\n

He said those people have an evil intent to misrepresent the institution during a critical period in Liberia\u2019s body politics.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou fought a good fight. I want to encourage you to listen to us to provide direction for you. Do not allow yourselves to be deceived,\u201d Koijee pleaded with his partisans.<\/p>\n

He informed them that President Weah has spoken very clearly and he will be having a conversation with all his partisans.<\/p>\n

\u201cCDCians from across the world, we appreciate you. You have demonstrated your commitment and love for the President and the CDC. Please remain law abiding. There\u2019s time for everything,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

He stated that this time, they have committed themselves to a peaceful, transparent and credible election.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will act responsibly and we want you to give deaf ears to misleading information that would push you to engage into acts that will undermine the peace of our country.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said any negative actions taken by anyone claiming to be partisan of the CDC will not be condoned.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf your action is in contravention of our calls for you to be peaceful and law abiding, you will bear the consequences of those actions alone. We will condemn you.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said the party structure will not accept acts that are counterproductive, encouraging partisans to be steadfast and calm.<\/p>\n

\u201cDo not take any unlawful actions. Follow the direction of your leaders, remain circumspect and act within the confines of the law,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n
