Commerce Ministry Clarifies..

The Ministry of Commerce and Industry (MOCI) has clarified recent media reports alleging irregularities surrounding the US$429,000 Monrovia Industrial Park (MIP) rehabilitation project. The Ministry stated that the reports misrepresented the facts and emphasized that the MIP initiative is being implemented transparently and in accordance with all legal and administrative procedures. The MIP, established in 1966 to host local and foreign manufacturers, now covers about 200 acres and houses several small and medium industrial enterprises.

Oversight of the MIP was transferred from the National Investment Commission to the Ministry of Commerce and Industry in 2017 under an Administrative Regulation, which also created an Inter-Agency Advisory Board. This Board, comprising representatives from ten key ministries and agencies, is responsible for approving all financial and operational decisions relating to the Park. The Ministry noted that past audits recommended that the MIP Fund be used strictly for development, security, and maintenance, and that all expenditures be approved by the Board.

In response to tenant complaints about poor conditions at the Park, the Board convened an emergency meeting on October 22, 2025, where a quorum was established and an adjusted operational budget of US$429,009 was approved for urgent rehabilitation and safety works. Priority activities include constructing an office building, security gates and booths, fencing the Park, resurveying land boundaries, improving sanitation, and hiring security personnel. The Board’s resolution was signed by nine of ten member institutions or their accredited representatives, making the decision legally valid under the governing regulation.

Following the Board’s approval, MOCI sought and received a “No Objection” from the Public Procurement and Concessions Commission (PPCC) on October 30, 2025, to proceed with procurement planning. The Ministry stressed that no contract has been awarded and no construction has begun only the Expression of Interest documents have been prepared for publication. MOCI reaffirmed its commitment to transparency, accountability, and lawful processes, urging the media to verify facts before publication to avoid undermining public trust and Liberia’s industrial development efforts.

NCSAL Warned Henry Costa

The National Civil Society Advocate has Mr. Henry Costa against using false and misleading being circulated against the Minister of Justice and Attorney General of the Republic of Liberia. Cllr. Onward N. Tweh Sr.

The National Civil Society Advocate of Liberia categorically resects these baseless allegations, which are cleanly intended to malign the character of a distinguished public service and undermine the integrity of the Ministry of Justice ⚖️.

Such a Smear campaign is not only reckless but also represents a deliberate attempt to mislead the public and distract the role of law and ensure justice for all.

According to the Acting Chairman of the Group, Mr. Ernest Shept, Cllr. Tweh is a highly respected legal practitioner and public servant with an unblemished record of professionalism, discipline, and commitment to duty. His service to the Republic has been characterised by transparency, integrity, and an unwavering dedication to the principles of justice and good governance.

We, the members of NCSL, wish to remind the public that unsubstantiated allegations and character attacks against public officials are not in the best interest of the state.

Adding, Mr. Costa reckless allegations are disservice to the Liberian people who deserve facts, not fabrication.

The Plenary of the House of Representatives has mandated its Committees on Good Governance, Tourism, Ways, Means, and Judiciary to review a proposal seeking the formulation and adoption of a twenty-five-year National Development Plan (2026–2051) to serve as a long-term framework for national growth and transformation.

The decision followed a communication from Montserrado County Electoral District #12 Representative, Hon. Jerry Yogboh, who emphasized the need for a comprehensive and consistent national development roadmap that transcends political transitions and short-term strategies.

Hon. Yogboh noted that Liberia’s development programs have historically been implemented on a short-term basis—often influenced by changes in political leadership—leading to limited policy continuity, fragmented planning, and reduced national impact.

According to him, the proposed 25-year plan would provide the following key benefits:
1. Strategic continuity across successive administrations, ensuring sustained focus on national priorities.
2. Economic and social stability, through alignment of all development initiatives with a shared national vision.
3. Increased investor and partner confidence, reinforcing Liberia’s long-term commitment to growth and transformation.
4. Equitable decentralization, promoting inclusive participation of all counties in national progress.
5. Environmental and resource sustainability, securing the well-being of future generations.
6. Enhanced national unity and accountability, as all governments would operate under a shared framework for progress.

Hon. Yogboh further proposed that the Ministry of Finance and Development Planning (MFDP) be mandated to lead broad-based consultations and coordinate the drafting process of the 25-year plan. He stressed the importance of involving key stakeholders, including government ministries, the private sector, academic institutions, civil society organizations, and international partners.

“This framework will define Liberia’s aspirations for economic independence, social equity, and institutional resilience—ensuring that development efforts transcend political cycles and align with our long-term national interests,” Hon. Yogboh stated.

The joint committees are expected to review the proposal and report to plenary within two weeks for further legislative consideration and possible action.

Former Ruling CDC Construction Committee, Chairperson Cllr. J. Fonita Koffa, has dismissed reports suggesting that charges have been filed against the CDC, led by Chairman Atty. Janka Kowo and others.

Chairman Koffa described the claims as purely speculative and unfounded.

In an interview on BANA FM 98.5 Representative Koffa stated that these rumors are solely intended to demoralize the CDC and discourage party supporters from participating in an upcoming event scheduled for Saturday October 18, 2025.

The event aims to break ground for the construction of a new party headquarters.

Koffa emphasized that the allegations are baseless, and a distraction meant to weaken the unity and strength of the CDC.

He expressed confidence that party members remain steadfast and will turnout in large numbers for the Saturday event, undeterred by such rumors.
