The Montserrado County Senator Abraham Darius Dillon has described the ongoing palaver within the opposition Liberty Party (LP) as ‘internal controversy’ among its members.
According to Senator Dillon before 2023 presidential and legislative elections, the internal controversy among partisans at Liberty Party will be adequately resolved with the assistance of Chairman Musa Hassan Bility, the Political Leader Senator Nyonblee Karnga-Lawrence, himself and other members of the party.
Speaking on the local radio OK FM on Saturday, November 5, 2022, the Montserrado County Senator, who an executive of the Liberty party, called on the National Elections Commission (NEC), including its chairperson Davidetta Brown Lansana to remain neutral in handling issues that brought to their attention by the party.
“I am particularly calling on the NEC Boss Davidetta Brown Lansana to remain neutral and act like referee. Then, I assure you all that peace will be restored and the two factions will become one,” Senator Dillon said.
However, he disclosed there are many more reasons for which the opposition Liberty Party is being divided and disunited, indicating there are people within the Liberty Party LP that only seek for their personal benefits and selfish gains and neglect the welfare of the party which does not only affect the party single handedly but the Opposition Bloc as a whole.
He further stated that “people clap either a partisan or a non-partisan not because the party had been divided but because of their personal interests”.
He made the assertion on the OK FM on Saturday November 5, 2022. For months in not a little over year, the Liberty Party has been embroiled in internal wrangling which has divided the party with one faction being led by political leader Senator Nyonblee Karnga-Lawrence on one hand and national chairman, Musa Hassan Bility on the other hand.
But there are reports that both sides of the Liberty Party are contemplating burying their hatchet and come together for the greater good of the party as the 2023 presidential and legislative elections approaches. Writes Mohammed B. Sheriff, Intern reporter
