As Liberians ponder over the holding of the runoff election after the Supreme Court ordered the National Elections Commission to proceed with the process, several Muslim groups in western Liberia over the weekend pledged their support to the presidential bid of George Weah of the Coalition for Democratic Change (CDC). The endorsement, which was held over the weekend at the party’s headquarters in Congo Town, brought together imams and women and youth groups. “We have come to make a conscious decision that will be in the interest of Liberia, because Liberia needs a different kind of leader that will bring real and positive change. “Weah will build roads, schools, provide access to electricity in various homes and businesses, and support the agricultural sector. This election is about bringing health services to the people and reducing the unemployment rate that affects the people, especially college graduates,” he said.
