Justice Minister-designate, Cllr. Charles Gibson, says at confirmation hearingPresident George Weah’s embattled nominee for the post of Justice Minister, yesterday told Senate confirmation hearing that the Liberia Anti-Corruption Commission(LACC), the Law Reform Commission (LRC) and the Governance Commission (GC), need to either be dissolved or revisited for reorganization. Gibson told the hearing that his suggestion came after the transition team of President Weah visited the LACC and held discussions with its members who even agreed that the team of five should be reduced to three. What I did is in line with what has been practiced regarding lawyer and client financial arrangements; I respect the Supreme Court ruling, but I have the conviction that one day that ruling will be revisited by another bench of the Court,” Cllr. “As a former and retired soldier, I welcome the decision because I will benefit from it now that I am retired.
