The repatriation is in progress of two officials of the Liberian embassy accredited near London, United Kingdom. Jay Napoleon Toquie, II and Chester Dweh Barh, were declared ‘persona non grata’ (PNG) by the British Government a fortnight ago. The British Government’s decision was communicated through the Charge d’Affaires of the Liberian Embassy in London, Ibrahim Nyei. The UK letter quoted Her Majesty’s Government advising the two members of the Liberian mission to leave the United Kingdom. In international relations, a ‘persona non grata’ is a foreign person entering or remaining in a particular country who is prohibited from doing so by that country’s government.
