LOFA COUNTY – The chairman of Liberty Party, Musa Hassan Bility, is urging the opposition Collaborating Political Parties (CPP) to ban lawmakers of the collaboration who approved the printing of L$48.7 billion banknotes from contesting on its ticket in the 2023 presidential and legislative elections. If you want to become a regime lawmaker, resign from the CPP and join the government,” he added. The Liberty Party, a constituent party of the four collaborating parties which include the former ruling Unity Party (UP), the Alternative National Conference ANC and the All Liberian Party, elected Bility on January 23, 2021 at its convention in Gbarnga. His election as chairman of the party generated criticisms from the public. According to them, Bility’s involvement with many corruption scandals, ranging from RIA Economic Sabotage and Criminal Conspiracy Case, Tax Evasion – 27 million dollars Road Fund debacle and the widely publicized FIFA ban from football because of his involvement in corruption renders him unfit to chair the Liberty Party.
