Liberian House Summons Key Officials Over Troop Deployment for Ex-President Weah’s Return

Members of Liberia’s House of Representatives have summoned key government institutions to provide details regarding the deployment of troops to Roberts International Airport during the arrival of former President George Weah from the United States.

The Ministries of Defense and Justice, along with the high command of the Armed Forces and the Presidential Security Advisor, have been called to appear before the legislature.

This action follows the deployment of soldiers at the airport, a measure taken in response to large crowds of supporters who had gathered to welcome the former president back to the country.

The House of Representatives seeks clarification on the decision to deploy military personnel, aiming to understand the justification and the circumstances that led to this unusual security measure.

Lawmakers are concerned about the implications of using military forces in such a context and are eager to ensure that all actions taken were in accordance with the law and appropriate protocols.

The upcoming session is expected to shed light on the decision-making process behind the troop deployment and address any concerns related to the event.
