MONROVIA – The head of the National Identification Registry, J. Tiah Nagbe has been called for questioning for allegedly issuing national ID cards to residents of Maryland County free of charge. The National Identification Registry (NIR) is responsible for issuing a digital identity in Liberia to among other things, help the country’s economic and social development. In his communication, Rep. Roland stated that the NIR cannot continue to cry for budgetary support while its Executive Director is at the same time issuing national ID card free of charge. Meanwhile, the lawmaker’s request was granted and Mr. Nagbe will appear before the House right after the Independence Day break. Formal receptions were held in his honor at the William V.S Tubman University in Harper and Jacksonville Township respectively; all in Electoral District #1, Maryland County.
