London, January 3, 2018: Liberia’s Permanent Representative to the International Maritime Organization (IMO), Ambassador Isaac Jackson has described the conclusion of Liberia’s historic elections as a reassuring step in further consolidating the country’s development agenda. Ambassador Jackson said even more progressive was the pledge for inclusiveness and to safeguard investment in the acceptance speech of President-Elect, George Weah. He congratulated Senators Weah and Jewel Howard Taylor for their election as President and Vice President of Liberia, respectively. Ambassador Jackson said the peaceful nature of the elections in Liberia accentuates the global call by President-Elect Weah that Liberia is ready for investment. Jackson then saluted the people of Liberia, who he described as the new jewel of peaceful overtures within our world, for proving once again that only a people can define their destiny.
