It\u2019s alarming and I think we have to bring this to the full glare of the plenary so that it can be made public.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Senator Moye said though Senators do not have the power to stop fraudsters and nominees from using their names or requesting monies from their friends and others in the business or private sectors, the alarm is intended to help address the situation.<\/p>\n<p>He noted that the Senate is not in the business of soliciting monies from nominees to execute their constitutional tasks and responsibilities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNobody should call you and said hold the phone Senator Moye or Brown want to talk to you. That\u2019s how they are doing it. They will not allow you to see the number. Go to the Senators number and find out through text message.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Also speaking, Grand Gedeh County Senator Zoe Emmanuel Pennue called on his colleagues to also sound a caveat to nominees to discourage them from \u201ccalling their business partners\u201d by using the Liberian Senate as a pawn to generate funds from them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNobody has asked anybody for a dime for confirmation. And so, those nominees that are coming-the business community should be careful that nobody should ask you because he or she is your friend and has been nominated to a position that is in your favor asking you for financial assistance to come and see the Senators. That is not true.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said though the caveat being sounded to fraudsters is welcoming, those coming for confirmation should also be warned against extorting or offering monies to Senators.<\/p>\n<p>He stated that presidential nominees who are qualified and competent to serve in government should only avail themselves to the relevant committees of the Senate as scheduled for confirmation instead of soliciting monies from their \u201cbusiness partners\u201d under false pretense.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThose that are qualified should come here with their documents; those that are already confirmed are not more Liberian that you. But please, don\u2019t use our names out there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Senator Thomas Yaya Nimely of Grand Gedeh County also alarmed that his name was used by a fraudster who attempted extorting money from the nominee for the position of the Minister of Internal Affairs and three others.<\/p>\n<p>He blamed the situation on the influx of those he called \u201c419ers\u201d in the Liberian society, noting that, \u201cI think we need to find a solution.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said GSM companies should get involved to establish the rightful ownerships of those phone numbers that are being used.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe public must be made aware that anybody using the name of any Senator, they should not do it. If you have the name or contact number of the Senator, contact them quietly,\u201d Senator Abraham Darius Dillon of Montserrado County stated.<\/p>\n<p>He stressed the need for the Liberian Senate to issue a statement against the situation.<\/p>\n<p>Senator Dillon emphasized that nominees should also be cautioned against holding discussions with Senators surrounding the offering of money to pave the way for the confirmation.<\/p>\n<p>He said nominees should not also negotiate with any member of the Senate Secretariat for the consideration of their confirmations.<\/p>\n<p>The Senators, however, failed to state the name of a particular nominee or fraudster extorting monies from their \u201cbusiness partners\u201d for confirmation or using their names to solicit funds from nominees<\/p>\n<p>Despite their failure, the Plenary of the Senate has mandated its Secretariat and the Department of Press and Public Affairs to issue a public service notice on the matter.<\/p>\n<p>Plenary is the highest decision making body of the Senate.<\/p>\n<p>The mandate comes at a time the names of barrage of nominees are being forwarded to the Liberian Senate for confirmation by President Boakai in keeping with Article 54 of the 1986 Constitution.<\/p>\n<p>Amongst other things, Article 54 states that: the president shall nominate and, with the consent of the Senate, appoint and commission cabinet ministers, ambassadors, ministers, consuls, the Chief Justice and Associate Justices of subordinate courts,\u201d amongst others.<\/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.
