Monrovia – The Independent Council of Patriots has announced that it will stage an alternative peaceful assembly against the Council of Patriots. Speaking Monday, January 6, with reporters in Monrovia, ICOP Chairman Rufus Neufville said all is now set for the planned assembly slated for Saturday, January 11, 2020. He said the peaceful Assembly is intended to protect the peace and constitutional democracy that is now being enjoyed by every Liberian. Neufville disclosed that the ICOP assembly is based on a permit received from the Ministry of Justice on Friday, January 3. The ICOP Chair has, therefore, assured Liberians of a peaceful assembly on January 11, that would “present a clear picture of the reality on the grounds in Liberia”.
