Montserrado County District # 10 Representative Yekeh Kolubah has again got his fellow Lawmakers and the Liberian people by a raising political surprise as he erects two giant-size billboards on the right and left flanks of the main entrance of the Capitol Building in Monrovia.
The billboards host the photo of two major opposition leaders Alexander B. Cummings and Amb. Joseph Boakai of the Alternative National congress and Unity Party respectively. Rep. Kolubah said similar actions have been portrayed by the ruling Coalition for Democratic Change whilst the National Elections Commission (NEC) remains tight-lipped about it.
The decision of the district #10 lawmaker to erect a billboard board at the entrance of the Capitol Building on Tuesday, February 7, 2023, created a state of hesitation and fear amongst citizens as elections fast approach with no fear for elections guideline. However, it is not yet been made clear what action will the 54th Legislature will take against Rep. Kolubah.
Rep. Kolubah, who is one of the strong critics of President Weah and the ruling Coalition for Democratic Change government, has on numerous occasions criticized President Weah and his government about corruption and other malpractices.
It can be recalled sometime last year, the Montserrado County District #10 Representative insisted that a comprehensive audit be conducted at the House of Representatives, under the leadership of speaker Bhofal Chambers of Pleebo Sodoken District in Maryland County.
Representative Kolubah alleged that the House of Representatives is inherently corrupt and has blatantly violated all the financial laws of the country since the inception of the Weah led government.
