ECOWAS delegation fails to resolve Liberia parliament impasse
It appears the Economic Community of West African States parliamentary delegation to resolve the impasse in the Liberian House of Representative was unsuccessful. The delegation said over the weekend that the parties were not able to arrive at a favorable conclusion. But it promised to remain fully engaged with the parties. A group of lawmakers claiming to be the majority in the House have accused Speaker J. Fonati Koffa of conflict of interest and want him removed. The Speaker has refused to step down. Representative Foday Edward Fahnbulleh, chair of the Good Governance and Reform Committee and a member of the majority calling for Speaker Koffa’s removal, tells James Butty, ECOWAS delegation understood the majority’s position.
