A Sad Day for Liberian Politics: Musa Bility Calls for Reflection, Not Celebration

The eviction of the Congress for Democratic Change (CDC) from its national headquarters is a sad day for Liberian politics and for our democracy. While the matter may find justification in law, its ex*****on has left the impression of humiliation, division, and triumphalism, all of which are dangerous for our fragile political culture.

The humiliation of any political party is not a victory for democracy. The only proper and legitimate way to defeat a political party is through the ballot box. To celebrate otherwise is to cheapen the very foundation of multiparty democracy that Liberia has fought so hard to build. What happened should not have happened, and no one should find joy in it.

At the same time, it is important to ask what kind of leadership the CDC itself provided its members in the midst of this longstanding dispute. The issue of tenancy and legal obligations has been ongoing for years. What precautionary measures did the party take to avoid this outcome? Could the humiliation we witnessed have been prevented through foresight, negotiation, or compromise? Leadership is tested not only in times of triumph, but in the ability to anticipate challenges and protect the dignity of one’s institution.

To the Unity Party, this is not a moment for celebration, but a moment for reflection. Years back, when the political climate was in reverse, you too faced similar circumstances. That was not a laughing matter. That was not a funny moment. The same accusations now being leveled against you, of having a hand in this eviction, were yesterday leveled against the CDC. This cycle of blame and humiliation is precisely why, in the Citizens Movement for Change (CMC), we insist that the polarization of our politics must end. A new act and a new attitude must take root if Liberia is to move forward.

This episode should be a sobering moment for all of us. Our democracy cannot survive on humiliation and revenge. It can only grow through tolerance, civility, and the genuine competition of ideas.

It is our hope that the CDC will use this painful experience as an opportunity to retool, revamp, and focus on strengthening its internal structures and service to its members. For the ruling establishment, this should be a time of reflection on how to engage opponents with civility and maturity. And for Liberia as a whole, let this serve as a reminder: humiliation is not democracy, and democracy cannot survive without respect, fairness, and peace.

CDC Condemns Planned Police Invasion of Headquarters, Files Appeal in Civil Case

Monrovia, August 22, 2025 – The opposition Congress for Democratic Change (CDC) has sharply reacted to what it describes as a planned invasion of its National Headquarters by the Liberia National Police (LNP), calling the move an act of intimidation and political harassment from the government.

In a statement released on Friday, August 22, 2025, and signed by National Chairman Atty. Janga A. Kowo, the CDC said it had taken note of the police’s pronouncement of an “invasion” slated for August 23, 2025 — a date the party had already scheduled for a mass meeting of partisans and stakeholders.

“The CDC reaffirms its commitment to the rule of law but will not be intimidated by harassment from the government of Liberia through the Liberia National Police,” the statement read.

According to the party, the ongoing dispute between the CDC and the estate of the late Martha Stubblefield Bernard, its landlord, remains a civil matter currently before the Liberian judiciary. The CDC insists that the government has no legal grounds to interfere in what is essentially a private legal battle.

Court documents seen by this paper confirm that on August 22, 2025, CDC lawyers perfected two separate appeals at the Civil Law Court, 6th Judicial Circuit, Montserrado County. The appeals were filed before Judge George W. Smith, with a Thirty Thousand Liberian Dollars (LD$30,000) appeal bond duly approved and signed.

“We do not expect a police invasion of our Headquarters tomorrow as this issue remains a civil matter before the courts of Liberia,” the party stressed, while encouraging partisans to attend the already scheduled gathering “peacefully.”

The statement further warned the government to avoid political interference in judicial proceedings, saying, “The CDC remains a peaceful political party that cannot be intimidated by government political interference in the judicial processes of our country. We hold the government fully responsible for the safety and security of our partisans and assets.”

The dispute stems from a petition for specific performance filed by the CDC against the intestate estate of the late Martha Stubblefield Bernard, represented by its administrator, Ebrima Varney Dempster.

As the matter proceeds to the Supreme Court of Liberia, the political atmosphere around the CDC headquarters in Congo Town is expected to be tense, with concerns of possible confrontation if police enforcement coincides with the party’s planned gathering.
