FrontPageAfrica has learned that the issue drew a divide amongst the CPP which dragged the finalization of the framework to put the collaboration into motion. Again, while some parties had argued in favor of Consensus, Voter Perception Survey (VPS) and Convention, others argued that VPS should not be a determinant for selecting a candidate. But I can tell you that it has been agreed that if there is no consensus after the consensus and convention, then we go to perception survey. Additionally, FPA has learned the field for the presidential candidate will be opened for other interested parties to participate. The Collaboration agreement signed in 2019 was initially greeted and hailed as perhaps the biggest strategic “collaboration” in Liberia’s history.
