Liberia. - From the page of Hon. Senator Saah H. Joseph Official

“Some months ago, Vice President Jeremiah Kpan Koung Sr. asked me to help him donate some medical supplies to Senator Samuel Gongben Kogar and Senator Nya D Twayen Jr. respectively. The Honorable Vice President also asked me to help him (VP) with 200 hospital beds for a hospital project he’s currently undertaking. The VP’s request was intended to support the Nimba Senators in their efforts to enhance healthcare service delivery to the good people of Nimba.

In fulfillment of the Honorable Vice President’s request, I made available one 40 ft container of assorted medical supplies to Senator Kogar on Wednesday, August 27, 2025. An additional 40 ft container of assorted medical supplies is en route to Liberia to be delivered to Senator Twayen. Concerning the hospital beds requested by the Vice President, I have already lobbied with my international partners, and the beds will be available in the country very soon for onward presentation to the Vice President.

I remain very committed to working with everyone in delivering needed services to our Liberian people.”

Liberia - Here is a public release by the Liberia Drug Enforcement Agency-Ldea following a recent report about the abuse of power by a high ranking officer:

“LDEA Suspends Chief of Operations Abraham O. Payne (U-704)

Monrovia, Liberia – August 26, 2025

The Director General of the Liberia Drug Enforcement Agency (LDEA), Hon. Anthony K. Souh, has suspended Chief of Operations Abraham O. Payne (U-704) following the emergence of an audio recording allegedly implicating him instructing the release of his daughter who was reportedly arrested in a ghetto. In the recording, Mr. Payne was allegedly heard ordering a junior officer to release his daughter immediately and further threatening the officer when he insisted on performing his duty.
The LDEA frowns upon such alleged actions which, if proven, undermine the integrity of the Agency and compromise the fight against illicit drugs. As such, Mr. Payne has been immediately suspended and referred to the Board of Internal Inquiry and Professional Standards (BIIPS) for a thorough investigation. The outcome of the investigation will be communicated to the public in due time.
The LDEA reiterates its zero-tolerance policy on unprofessional and unethical conduct and assures the public that no officer, regardless of position or rank is spared when caught in any unprofessional conduct.

US Politics - President Trump fires Central Bank Governor Lisa Cook!

On Monday President Donald Trump said he is firing Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, escalating his pressure campaign on the Central Bank to lower interest rates.

Cook was nominated to her role by President Joe Biden and confirmed by the Senate in 2022. She once served on the board of directors of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago.

President Trump via social media post shared a letter addressed to Cook asserting the Department of Justice’s inquiry into whether she lied on mortgage applications amounted to “sufficient cause” to remove her from the fed board.

In response, Cook has said Trump has no authority to fire her and she will not resign.
